True story, here is a good blog post about that topic: Protocol Oriented Programming is Not a Silver Bullet

So lets focus on fixing and improving protocols. :) We should start with open/public protocol. No, this is not a POP language only, OOP is neither discourage nor unwelcome and it is a first class citizen. Telling people there are better ways in some / many scenarios and that deep inheritance hierarchies are bad is not the same thing: composition as spatter was not born with Swift. I do not want to offend, but it is getting a bit irritating that whenever someone wants to improve object oriented patterns the answer resembles a "why bother? Isn't it an unsupported feature anyway?" :P. People want to improve POP patterns? Good, it does not and should not upset or come at the expenses of other first class features... everybody is happy then... almost :). PS: I also cannot wait for existentials to drop typealias ProtoB = Any<Proto> where Proto.A == B where B comes from a generic parameter list and A is an associated type. -- Adrian Zubarev Sent with Airmail Am 2.

Maybe you're thinking of allowing member access to subclasses? Would that fall into a possible "protected" realm? _______________________________________________ swift-evolution mailing list [email protected] https://lists.swift.org/mailman/listinfo/swift-evolution
