Swift doesn’t have an equivalent because the language simply isn’t as dynamic as Objective-C: there is no mechanism to invoke a method at runtime given its name. If you’re on an Apple platform, and the method you want to call, and its class, are @objc — then you can literally use NSInvocation from Swift to do this. But not otherwise. —Jens _______________________________________________ swift-users mailing list swift-users@swift.org https://lists.swift.org/mailman/listinfo/swift-users
