The question is in the comment. Expensive is a struct that either doesn't implement Copy, or copying is too expensive.
Update: replaced Option with a user enum Internal.
enum Internal {
Type1(Expensive),
Type2(String),
Empty,
}
struct Foo {
value: Internal,
}
impl Foo {
fn exec(&mut self) -> Result<Expensive, String> {
if let Internal::Type1(_) = &self.value {
let value = std::mem::take(&mut self.value);
// QUESTION: how do I avoid this pattern matching since we know the value must be Internal::Type1
return match value {
Internal::Type1(e) => Result::Ok(e),
_ => Result::Err(String::from("Impossible")),
};
}
// Some other logic that will use self.value
}
}
You can leverage Option::take to make the code shorter:
if let Option::Some(value) = self.value.take() {
return Ok(value);
}
I'm trying to do a simple comparison of a value received via an NSNotification, and an enumeration value. I have something that works, but I can't believe that this is the right way to be doing this. Basically the solution I ended up with was converting the NSNumber to an Int, and also getting the enum value's rawValue, wrapping it in an NSNumber and then getting the integerValue of that.
Everything else I tried resulted in compiler errors about not being able to convert between Uint 8 and Int or something similar.
observer = NSNotificationCenter.defaultCenter().addObserverForName(AVAudioSessionRouteChangeNotification, object: nil, queue: mainQueue) { notification in
println(AVAudioSessionRouteChangeReason.NewDeviceAvailable.toRaw())
if let reason = notification.userInfo[AVAudioSessionRouteChangeReasonKey!] as? NSNumber {
if (reason.integerValue == NSNumber(unsignedLong:AVAudioSessionRouteChangeReason.NewDeviceAvailable.toRaw()).integerValue) {
self.headphoneJackedIn = true;
} else if (reason.integerValue == NSNumber(unsignedLong:AVAudioSessionRouteChangeReason.OldDeviceUnavailable.toRaw()).integerValue) {
self.headphoneJackedIn = false;
}
self.updateHeadphoneJackLabel()
}
}
This should work:
if reason.integerValue == Int(AVAudioSessionRouteChangeReason.NewDeviceAvailable.rawValue) {
// ...
}
Remark: The AVAudioSessionRouteChangeReason enumeration uses UInt as raw value type, so
one could expect that this works without an explicit conversion:
if reason.unsignedIntegerValue == AVAudioSessionRouteChangeReason.NewDeviceAvailable.rawValue {
}
However, as of Xcode 6 beta 4, NSUInteger is mapped to Swift's Int in OS X and iOS
system frameworks, which means that both integerValue and unsignedIntegerValue return an Int,
and an explicit conversion is needed in any case.
Alternatively, you could create an enumeration value from the number (as already suggested by #ColinE
in a comment) and then use switch case:
if let r = AVAudioSessionRouteChangeReason(rawValue: UInt(reason.integerValue)) {
switch r {
case .NewDeviceAvailable:
// ...
case .OldDeviceUnavailable:
// ...
default:
// ...
}
} else {
println ("Other reason")
}
For the same reason as above, an explicit UInt conversion is necessary here as well.
I have a class in Swift called Button:
enum ButtonBackgroundColor {
case None
case Yellow
}
class Button: UIButton {
var backgroundColorType: ButtonBackgroundColor?
}
And then I'm setting a runtime attribute:
However, I get a non-descriptive crash. The stack trace mentions something about key value coding.
Runtime attributes do work however for non enum types, like Int or Float:
// runtime attributes work for this
var backgroundColorType: Int = 0
Is there something wrong with the way I'm declaring my enum?
Given that your enum ButtonBackgroundColor includes a .None case, why not avoid declaring backgroundColorType in Button as an optional? Doing so needlessly complicates the declaration. Prefer
class Button: UIButton {
var backgroundColorType = ButtonBackgroundColor.None
}
Besides being more idiomatically correct, the above might, just might, fix your 'user defined attribute' issue now that the variable is not an optional.
You also might need to provide raw values in your enum. Like:
enum ButtonBackgroundColor : Int {
case None = 0
case Yellow = 1
}
if you expect the runtime attribute value of '0' to perhaps map to .None
#GoZoner's answer didn't work for me. Tried changing the raw type to String and that didn't work as well. My solution is to define another variable (of whichever type supported by the runtime attributes) and then override the didSet of that variable to set the enum.
So in code:
var IBButtonBackgroundColor = "None"
{
didSet
{
switch self.IBButtonBackgroundColor
{
case "None":
self.backgroundColorType = .None
break
case "Yellow":
self.backgroundColorType = .Yellow
break
default:
self.backgroundColorType = .None
break
}
}
}
var backgroundColorType:ButtonBackgroundColor = .None
I don't like having to repeat things in the switch/case, but I can't think of any better solution for now.
I would like to use java-like enums, where you can have enum instances with custom data. For instance:
enum Country {
case Moldova(capital: "Chișinău", flagColors: [Color.Blue, Color.Yellow, Color.Red]);
case Botswana(capital: "Gaborone", flagColors: [Color.Blue, Color.White, Color.Black]);
}
I could later write:
Country.Moldova.capital;
It seems that I can indicate the variables, but not the values, and I can only assign the values when using the enum, not declaring. Which would be the best way to mimic this behaviour?
you can do something like this, which may be helpful: (that is a very generic example only)
enum Country : Int {
case Moldova, Botwana;
//
func capital() -> String {
switch (self) {
case .Moldova:
return "Chișinău"
case .Botwana:
return "Gaborone"
default:
return ""
}
}
//
func flagColours() -> Array<UIColor> {
switch (self) {
case .Moldova:
return [UIColor.blueColor(), UIColor.yellowColor(), UIColor.redColor()]
case .Botwana:
return [UIColor.blueColor(), UIColor.whiteColor(), UIColor.blackColor()]
default:
return []
}
}
//
func all() -> (capital: String, flagColours: Array<UIColor>) {
return (capital(), flagColours())
}
//
var capitolName: String {
get {
return capital()
}
}
//
var flagColoursArray: Array<UIColor> {
get {
return flagColours()
}
}
}
then you can access to the details like this:
let country: Country = Country.Botwana
get the capital
that way:
let capital: String = country.capital()
or another:
let capital: String = country.all().capital
or a third one:
let capital: String = country.capitolName
get the flag's colours:
that way:
let flagColours: Array<UIColor> = country.flagColours()
or another:
let flagColours: Array<UIColor> = country.all().flagColours
or a third one:
let flagColours: Array<UIColor> = country.flagColoursArray
Here is another generic example that is similar to the one posted by holex, but a bit closer to how it looks in Java. (I like it because all of the custom data is in one place). Instead of switching on 'self' in separate methods, I simply create a static dictionary that maps each case to a tuple containing the appropriate data. Then, I have convenience var's to get at the data easily.
enum TestEnum {
case One
case Two
case Three
private static let associatedValues = [
One: (int: 1, double: 1.0, string: "One"),
Two: (int: 2, double: 2.0, string: "Two"),
Three: (int: 3, double: 3.0, string: "Three")
]
var int: Int {
return TestEnum.associatedValues[self]!.int;
}
var double: Double {
return TestEnum.associatedValues[self]!.double;
}
var string: String {
return TestEnum.associatedValues[self]!.string;
}
}
You can access the custom data like so:
println(TestEnum.One.int) // 1
println(TestEnum.Two.double) // 2.0
println(TestEnum.Three.string) // Three
Unfortunately it seems like enums with raw values are limited to literal values. You may want to file a bug.
As an alternative, you could do something like this:
let Country = (
Moldova: (capital: "Chișinău", flagColors: [Color.Blue, Color.Yellow, Color.Red]),
Botswana: (capital: "Gaborone", flagColors: [Color.Blue, Color.White, Color.Black])
)
or this:
struct Country {
let capital: String
let flagColors: [Color]
}
let Countries = (
Moldova: Country(capital: "Chișinău", flagColors: [.Blue, .Yellow, .Red]),
Botswana: Country(capital: "Gaborone", flagColors: [.Blue, .White, .Black])
)
How should bit fields be declared and used in Swift?
Declaring an enum like this does work, but trying to OR 2 values together fails to compile:
enum MyEnum: Int
{
case One = 0x01
case Two = 0x02
case Four = 0x04
case Eight = 0x08
}
// This works as expected
let m1: MyEnum = .One
// Compiler error: "Could not find an overload for '|' that accepts the supplied arguments"
let combined: MyEnum = MyEnum.One | MyEnum.Four
I looked at how Swift imports Foundation enum types, and it does so by defining a struct that conforms to the RawOptionSet protocol:
struct NSCalendarUnit : RawOptionSet {
init(_ value: UInt)
var value: UInt
static var CalendarUnitEra: NSCalendarUnit { get }
static var CalendarUnitYear: NSCalendarUnit { get }
// ...
}
And the RawOptionSet protocol is:
protocol RawOptionSet : LogicValue, Equatable {
class func fromMask(raw: Self.RawType) -> Self
}
However, there is no documentation on this protocol and I can't figure out how to implement it myself. Moreover, it's not clear if this is the official Swift way of implementing bit fields or if this is only how the Objective-C bridge represents them.
You can build a struct that conforms to the RawOptionSet protocol, and you'll be able to use it like the built-in enum type but with bitmask functionality as well. The answer here shows how:
Swift NS_OPTIONS-style bitmask enumerations.
Updated for Swift 2/3
Since swift 2, a new solution has been added as "raw option set" (see: Documentation), which is essentially the same as my original response, but using structs that allow arbitrary values.
This is the original question rewritten as an OptionSet:
struct MyOptions: OptionSet
{
let rawValue: UInt8
static let One = MyOptions(rawValue: 0x01)
static let Two = MyOptions(rawValue: 0x02)
static let Four = MyOptions(rawValue: 0x04)
static let Eight = MyOptions(rawValue: 0x08)
}
let m1 : MyOptions = .One
let combined : MyOptions = [MyOptions.One, MyOptions.Four]
Combining with new values can be done exactly as Set operations (thus the OptionSet part), .union, likewise:
m1.union(.Four).rawValue // Produces 5
Same as doing One | Four in its C-equivalent. As for One & Mask != 0, can be specified as a non-empty intersection
// Equivalent of A & B != 0
if !m1.intersection(combined).isEmpty
{
// m1 belongs is in combined
}
Weirdly enough, most of the C-style bitwise enums have been converted to their OptionSet equivalent on Swift 3, but Calendar.Compontents does away with a Set<Enum>:
let compontentKeys : Set<Calendar.Component> = [.day, .month, .year]
Whereas the original NSCalendarUnit was a bitwise enum. So both approaches are usable (thus the original response remains valid)
Original Response
I think the best thing to do, is to simply avoid the bitmask syntax until the Swift devs figure out a better way.
Most of the times, the problem can be solved using an enum and and a Set
enum Options
{
case A, B, C, D
}
var options = Set<Options>(arrayLiteral: .A, .D)
An and check (options & .A) could be defined as:
options.contains(.A)
Or for multiple "flags" could be:
options.isSupersetOf(Set<Options>(arrayLiteral: .A, .D))
Adding new flags (options |= .C):
options.insert(.C)
This also allows for using all the new stuff with enums: custom types, pattern matching with switch case, etc.
Of course, it doesn't have the efficiency of bitwise operations, nor it would be compatible with low level things (like sending bluetooth commands), but it's useful for UI elements that the overhead of the UI outweighs the cost of the Set operations.
They showed how to do this in one of the WWDC videos.
let combined = MyEnum.One.toRaw() | MyEnum.Four.toRaw()
Note that combined will be Int type and will actually get a compiler error if you specify let combined: MyEnum. That is because there is no enum value for 0x05 which is the result of the expression.
I think maybe some of the answers here are outdated with overcomplicated solutions? This works fine for me..
enum MyEnum: Int {
case One = 0
case Two = 1
case Three = 2
case Four = 4
case Five = 8
case Six = 16
}
let enumCombined = MyEnum.Five.rawValue | MyEnum.Six.rawValue
if enumCombined & MyEnum.Six.rawValue != 0 {
println("yay") // prints
}
if enumCombined & MyEnum.Five.rawValue != 0 {
println("yay again") // prints
}
if enumCombined & MyEnum.Two.rawValue != 0 {
println("shouldn't print") // doesn't print
}
If you don't need to interoperate with Objective-C and just want the syntax of bit masks in Swift, I've written a simple "library" called BitwiseOptions that can do this with regular Swift enumerations, e.g.:
enum Animal: BitwiseOptionsType {
case Chicken
case Cow
case Goat
static let allOptions = [.Chicken, .Cow, .Goat]
}
var animals = Animal.Chicken | Animal.Goat
animals ^= .Goat
if animals & .Chicken == .Chicken {
println("Chick-Fil-A!")
}
and so on. No actual bits are being flipped here. These are set operations on opaque values. You can find the gist here.
#Mattt's very famous "NSHipster" has an extensive detailed description of the RawOptionsSetType : http://nshipster.com/rawoptionsettype/
It includes a handy Xcode snipped:
struct <# Options #> : RawOptionSetType, BooleanType {
private var value: UInt = 0
init(_ value: UInt) { self.value = value }
var boolValue: Bool { return value != 0 }
static func fromMask(raw: UInt) -> <# Options #> { return self(raw) }
static func fromRaw(raw: UInt) -> <# Options #>? { return self(raw) }
func toRaw() -> UInt { return value }
static var allZeros: <# Options #> { return self(0) }
static func convertFromNilLiteral() -> <# Options #> { return self(0) }
static var None: <# Options #> { return self(0b0000) }
static var <# Option #>: <# Options #> { return self(0b0001) }
// ...
}
You have to use .toRaw() after each member:
let combined: Int = MyEnum.One.toRaw() | MyEnum.Four.toRaw()
will work. Because as it is you're just trying to assign "One" which is a MyEnum type, not an integer. As Apple's documentation says:
“Unlike C and Objective-C, Swift enumeration members are not assigned a default integer value when they are created. In the CompassPoints example, North, South, East and West do not implicitly equal 0, 1, 2 and 3. Instead, the different enumeration members are fully-fledged values in their own right, with an explicitly-defined type of CompassPoint.”
so you have to use raw values if you want the members to represent some other type, as described here:
Enumeration members can come prepopulated with default values (called raw values), which are all of the same type. The raw value for a particular enumeration member is always the same. Raw values can be strings, characters, or any of the integer or floating-point number types. Each raw value must be unique within its enumeration declaration. When integers are used for raw values, they auto-increment if no value is specified for some of the enumeration members. Access the raw value of an enumeration member with its toRaw method.
I use the following I need the both values I can get, rawValue for indexing arrays and value for flags.
enum MyEnum: Int {
case one
case two
case four
case eight
var value: UInt8 {
return UInt8(1 << self.rawValue)
}
}
let flags: UInt8 = MyEnum.one.value ^ MyEnum.eight.value
(flags & MyEnum.eight.value) > 0 // true
(flags & MyEnum.four.value) > 0 // false
(flags & MyEnum.two.value) > 0 // false
(flags & MyEnum.one.value) > 0 // true
MyEnum.eight.rawValue // 3
MyEnum.four.rawValue // 2
This worked for me.
1 << 0 //0000
1 << 1 //0010
1 << 2 //0100
1 << 3 //1000
enum Collision: Int {
case Enemy, Projectile, Debris, Ground
func bitmask() -> UInt32 {
return 1 << self.rawValue
}
}
I'm taking a guess that something like this is how they are modeling enum options in Foundation:
struct TestOptions: RawOptionSet {
// conform to RawOptionSet
static func fromMask(raw: UInt) -> TestOptions {
return TestOptions(raw)
}
// conform to LogicValue
func getLogicValue() -> Bool {
if contains([1, 2, 4], value) {
return true
}
return false
}
// conform to RawRepresentable
static func fromRaw(raw: UInt) -> TestOptions? {
if contains([1, 2, 4], raw) {
return TestOptions(raw)
}
return nil
}
func toRaw() -> UInt {
return value
}
// options and value
var value: UInt
init(_ value: UInt) {
self.value = value
}
static var OptionOne: TestOptions {
return TestOptions(1)
}
static var OptionTwo: TestOptions {
return TestOptions(2)
}
static var OptionThree: TestOptions {
return TestOptions(4)
}
}
let myOptions = TestOptions.OptionOne | TestOptions.OptionThree
println("myOptions: \(myOptions.toRaw())")
if (myOptions & TestOptions.OptionOne) {
println("OPTION ONE is in there")
} else {
println("nope, no ONE")
}
if (myOptions & TestOptions.OptionTwo) {
println("OPTION TWO is in there")
} else {
println("nope, no TWO")
}
if (myOptions & TestOptions.OptionThree) {
println("OPTION THREE is in there")
} else {
println("nope, no THREE")
}
let nextOptions = myOptions | TestOptions.OptionTwo
println("options: \(nextOptions.toRaw())")
if (nextOptions & TestOptions.OptionOne) {
println("OPTION ONE is in there")
} else {
println("nope, no ONE")
}
if (nextOptions & TestOptions.OptionTwo) {
println("OPTION TWO is in there")
} else {
println("nope, no TWO")
}
if (nextOptions & TestOptions.OptionThree) {
println("OPTION THREE is in there")
} else {
println("nope, no THREE")
}
...where myOptions and nextOptions are of type TestOptions - I'm not exactly sure how fromMask() and getLogicValue() are supposed to act here (I just took some best guesses), maybe somebody could pick this up and work it out?
If you want bitfield in Swift, then enum is the wrong way. Better just do like this
class MyBits {
static let One = 0x01
static let Two = 0x02
static let Four = 0x04
static let Eight = 0x08
}
let m1 = MyBits.One
let combined = MyBits.One | MyBits.Four
You don't really need the class/static wrapper, but I include it as a kind of pseudo namespace.
Do bitwise operation using raw value then create a new enum object using the result.
let mask = UIViewAutoresizing(rawValue: UIViewAutoresizing.FlexibleWidth.rawValue|UIViewAutoresizing.FlexibleHeight.rawValue)
self.view.autoresizingMask = mask
Here's something I put together to try to make a Swift enum that resembles to some extent a C# flags-style enum. But I'm just learning Swift, so this should only be considered to be "proof of concept" code.
/// This EnumBitFlags protocol can be applied to a Swift enum definition, providing a small amount
/// of compatibility with the flags-style enums available in C#.
///
/// The enum should be defined as based on UInt, and enum values should be defined that are powers
/// of two (1, 2, 4, 8, ...). The value zero, if defined, should only be used to indicate a lack of
/// data or an error situation.
///
/// Note that with C# the enum may contain a value that does not correspond to the defined enum
/// constants. This is not possible with Swift, it enforces that only valid values can be set.
public protocol EnumBitFlags : RawRepresentable, BitwiseOperations {
var rawValue : UInt { get } // This provided automatically by enum
static func createNew(_ rawValue : UInt) -> Self // Must be defined as some boiler-plate code
}
/// Extension methods for enums that implement the EnumBitFlags protocol.
public extension EnumBitFlags {
// Implement protocol BitwiseOperations. But note that some of these operators, especially ~,
// will almost certainly result in an invalid (nil) enum object, resulting in a crash.
public static func & (leftSide: Self, rightSide: Self) -> Self {
return self.createNew(leftSide.rawValue & rightSide.rawValue)
}
public static func | (leftSide: Self, rightSide: Self) -> Self {
return self.createNew(leftSide.rawValue | rightSide.rawValue)
}
public static func ^ (leftSide: Self, rightSide: Self) -> Self {
return self.createNew(leftSide.rawValue ^ rightSide.rawValue)
}
public static prefix func ~ (x: Self) -> Self {
return self.createNew(~x.rawValue)
}
public static var allZeros: Self {
get {
return self.createNew(0)
}
}
// Method hasFlag() for compatibility with C#
func hasFlag<T : EnumBitFlags>(_ flagToTest : T) -> Bool {
return (self.rawValue & flagToTest.rawValue) != 0
}
}
This shows how it can be used:
class TestEnumBitFlags {
// Flags-style enum specifying where to write the log messages
public enum LogDestination : UInt, EnumBitFlags {
case none = 0 // Error condition
case systemOutput = 0b01 // Logging messages written to system output file
case sdCard = 0b10 // Logging messages written to SD card (or similar storage)
case both = 0b11 // Both of the above options
// Implement EnumBitFlags protocol
public static func createNew(_ rawValue : UInt) -> LogDestination {
return LogDestination(rawValue: rawValue)!
}
}
private var _logDestination : LogDestination = .none
private var _anotherEnum : LogDestination = .none
func doTest() {
_logDestination = .systemOutput
assert(_logDestination.hasFlag(LogDestination.systemOutput))
assert(!_logDestination.hasFlag(LogDestination.sdCard))
_anotherEnum = _logDestination
assert(_logDestination == _anotherEnum)
_logDestination = .systemOutput | .sdCard
assert(_logDestination.hasFlag(LogDestination.systemOutput) &&
_logDestination.hasFlag(LogDestination.sdCard))
/* don't do this, it results in a crash
_logDestination = _logDestination & ~.systemOutput
assert(_logDestination == .sdCard)
*/
_logDestination = .sdCard
_logDestination |= .systemOutput
assert(_logDestination == .both)
}
}
Suggestions for improvement are welcome.
EDIT: I've given up on this technique myself, and therefore obviously can't recommend it anymore.
The big problem is that Swift demands that rawValue must match one of the defined enum values. This is OK if there are only 2 or 3 or maybe even 4 flag bits - just define all of the combination values in order to make Swift happy. But for 5 or more flag bits it becomes totally crazy.
I'll leave this posted in case someone finds it useful, or maybe as a warning of how NOT to do it.
My current solution to this situation is based on using a struct instead of enum, together with a protocol and some extension methods. This works much better. Maybe I'll post it someday when I'm more sure that that isn't also isn't going to backfire on me.
