我正在研究一个类,其中超类及其子类具有不同的属性,但所有相同的类型都需要在分配之前进行相同的处理。我想出了一个非常人为和简化的示例,说明我正在尝试对关键路径进行操作,可能使用泛型,包括非最佳但有效的变体。
class OriginalClass {
// this will only allow for properties that exist available on the base `OriginalClass` (and that makes sense)
func updateAProperty(to value: Int, keyPath: ReferenceWritableKeyPath<OriginalClass, Int>) {
// lots of custom, but common logic
self[keyPath: keyPath] = value
}
// this *works*, but I don't like the cast I have to do on the first line, and the call site requires explicit
// keypaths (including the type)
func updateAPropertyTwo<GenClass>(to value: Int, keyPath: ReferenceWritableKeyPath<GenClass, Int>) {
guard let self = self as? GenClass else { return }
self[keyPath: keyPath] = value
}
// ideally, i want to do something like this. Basically, the compiler should (aka i WANT it to) be able to tell that
// im working off a subclass of OriginalClass and provide the keypaths available to the subclass in addition to those
// on the base, superclass.
// func idealNonworking(to value: Int, keyPath: ReferenceWritableKeyPath<*AutomaticallyReplacedWithWhateverSubclass*, Int>) {
// // lots of custom, but common logic
// self[keyPath: keyPath] = value
// }
// this complains that `Same-type requirement makes generic parameter 'GenClass' non-generic`, but afaik, if it DID
// work it SHOULD include the subclass properties (but it doesn't, to be clear)
// func alternativeIdealYetNonworking<GenClass>(to value: Int, keyPath: ReferenceWritableKeyPath<GenClass, Int>) where GenClass == Self {
// // lots of custom, but common logic
// self[keyPath: keyPath] = value
// }
}
class SecondClass: OriginalClass {
var subclassValue = 0
func nonWorkingExample() {
// updateAProperty(to: subclassValue + 1, keyPath: \.subclassValue)
}
func subOptimalWorkingExample() {
updateAPropertyTwo(to: subclassValue + 1, keyPath: \SecondClass.subclassValue)
// updateAPropertyTwo(to: subclassValue + 1, keyPath: \Self.subclassValue) // runs into a runtime demangling error
// updateAPropertyTwo(to: subclassValue + 1, keyPath: \.subclassValue)
}
// func optimalYetNonworkingExample() {
// idealNonworking(to subclassValue + 1, keyPath: \.subclassValue)
// }
}
let test = SecondClass()
print(test.subclassValue)
test.subOptimalWorkingExample()
print(test.subclassValue)
现在,我知道为什么第一个不起作用(关键路径类型由 上可用的属性定义OriginalClass
),但我不确定为什么最后一个不起作用。当然,这不如有人知道如何做到这一点重要
