Comparing two enum variables regardless of their associated values

Question

Consider this enum:

enum DataType {
    case One (data: Int)
    case Two (value: String)
}

Swift has pattern matching to compare an enum w

Answer 1

This worked for me:

enum DataType {
    case one (data: Int)
    case two (value: String)
}

protocol EnumTypeEquatable {
    static func sameType(lhs: Self, rhs: Self) -> Bool
}

extension DataType: EnumTypeEquatable {
    static func sameType(lhs: DataType, rhs: DataType) -> Bool {
        if let caseLhs = Mirror(reflecting: lhs).children.first?.label, let caseRhs = Mirror(reflecting: rhs).children.first?.label {
            return (caseLhs == caseRhs)
        } else { return false }
    }
}

let isTypeEqual = DataType.sameType(lhs: .one(data: 1), rhs: .one(data: 2))
print (isTypeEqual) // true
