问题
Say I have a Framework called SwiftKit, which has a UIView's extension class method named someClassMethod and a property named someProperty within it:
// SwiftKit
public extension UIView {
class func someClassMethod() {
print("someClassMethod from Swift Kit")
}
var someProperty: Double {
print("someProperty from Swift Kit")
return 0
}
}
And I also have a Framework called SwiftFoundation, which also has a UIView's extension class method named someClassMethod and a property named someProperty within it:
// SwiftFoundation
public extension UIView {
class func someClassMethod() {
print("someClassMethod from Swift Foundation")
}
var someProperty: Double {
print("someProperty from Swift Foundation")
return 0
}
}
Then I created a project introduced these Frameworks, things is, if I import both of them in the same swift file and access those extensions, I got a "Ambiguous use of someProperty/someClassMethod()" error, even if I specified the call in the form of SwiftKit.UIView.someClassMethod() :
import UIKit
import SwiftKit
import SwiftFoundation
class ViewController: UIViewController {
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
self.view.someProperty // error: Ambiguous use of 'somProperty'
SwiftKit.UIView.someClassMethod() // error: Ambiguous use of 'someClassMethod()'
}
}
If I only import one of them, the ambiguous error goes away, but more strange thing happens:
import UIKit
import SwiftKit
//import SwiftFoundation
class ViewController: UIViewController {
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
self.view.someProperty
SwiftKit.UIView.someClassMethod()
}
}
The console print out:
someProperty from Swift Foundation
someClassMethod from Swift Foundation
My question is: How can I call these extensions(both class/instance method, properties) without ambiguous? If I cannot, does it mean we should add prefix to extension names as we usually do with Objective-C?

Problem
frameworks SwiftFoundation and SwiftKit has the same names of the properties and functions
decision
Way1
Use different names of the properties and functions
// SwiftFoundation
public extension UIView {
public class func swiftFoundationSomeClassMethod() {
print("someClassMethod from Swift Foundation")
}
public var swiftFoundationSomeProperty: Double {
print("someProperty from Swift Foundation")
return 0
}
}
Way2
Group the properties and functions
// SwiftKit
public extension UIView {
public class SwiftKit {
public class func someClassMethod() {
print("someClassMethod from Swift Kit")
}
public var someProperty: Double {
print("someProperty from Swift Kit")
return 0
}
}
var SwiftKit: SwiftKit { return SwiftKit() }
}
Result
import UIKit
import SwiftKit
import SwiftFoundation
class ViewController: UIViewController {
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
_ = view.SwiftKit.someProperty
UIView.SwiftKit.someClassMethod()
_ = view.swiftFoundationSomeProperty
UIView.swiftFoundationSomeClassMethod()
}
}
Project
Your method
SwiftFoundation.UIView.swiftFoundationSomeClassMethod()
Your variant of using the namespaces is not correct because all UIView extensions from both frameworks are included in you UIView class. Look at image bellow, you can see SwiftKit class and swiftFoundationSomeClassMethod() inside SwiftFoundation. This can confuse other developers.
回答2:
If it's an extension of an ObjC NSObject
object e.g. UIView
, then yes the extension method requires a prefix.
However, those who find the underscores unsightly can try this alternative that uses Swift protocols to replace the UIColor.red.my_toImage()
with UIColor.red.my.toImage()
