Swift Equatable on a protocol

Question

I don\'t think this can be done but I\'ll ask anyway. I have a protocol:

protocol X {}

And a class:

class Y:X {}

Answer 1

maybe this will be helpful for you:

protocol X:Equatable {
    var name: String {get set}

}

extension X {
    static func ==(lhs: Self, rhs: Self) -> Bool {
        return lhs.name == rhs.name
    }
}

struct Test : X {
    var name: String
}

let first = Test(name: "Test1")
let second = Test(name: "Test2")

print(first == second) // false
