i'm using swift with typhoon and somehow my components don't get injected through property-injection. For simple types like Strings
it is working. I provided a simple example which explains the problem. The Output shows the result where serviceB
has a null reference to serviceA
. All String
properties are set properly and no error is thrown. What am i'm doing wrong here?
XCode: 6-beta5 ,Typhoon: 2.1.0
MYServiceA.swift
@objc(MYServiceA) public class MYServiceA : NSObject {
public var text : String!
}
MYServiceB.swift
@objc(MYServiceB) public class MYServiceB : NSObject {
public var text : String!
public var serivceA : MYServiceA!
}
MYAssembly.swift
public class MYAssembly : TyphoonAssembly {
public func serviceA() -> AnyObject {
var definitionBlock : TyphoonDefinitionBlock = {(definition : TyphoonDefinition!) in
definition.injectProperty("text", with: "some a text")
definition.scope = TyphoonScopeSingleton
}
return TyphoonDefinition.withClass(NSClassFromString("MYServiceA"), configuration: definitionBlock)
}
public func serviceB() -> AnyObject {
var definitionBlock : TyphoonDefinitionBlock = {(definition : TyphoonDefinition!) in
definition.injectProperty("text", with: "some b text")
definition.injectProperty("serivceA", with: self.serviceA())
definition.scope = TyphoonScopeSingleton
}
return TyphoonDefinition.withClass(NSClassFromString("MYServiceB"), configuration: definitionBlock)
}
}
AppDelegate.swift
import UIKit
@UIApplicationMain
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
var window: UIWindow?
func application(application: UIApplication!, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: NSDictionary!) -> Bool {
var assembly : MYAssembly = MYAssembly()
var factory : TyphoonComponentFactory = TyphoonBlockComponentFactory(assembly: assembly) as TyphoonComponentFactory
factory.makeDefault()
var serviceA : MYServiceA = TyphoonComponentFactory.defaultFactory().componentForKey("serviceA") as MYServiceA
println("MYServiceA")
println("- instance=\(serviceA != nil)")
println("- text=\(serviceA.text)")
var serviceB : MYServiceB = TyphoonComponentFactory.defaultFactory().componentForKey("serviceB") as MYServiceB
println("MYServiceB")
println("- instance=\(serviceB != nil)")
println("- text=\(serviceB.text)")
println("- serviceA.instance=\(serviceB.serivceA != nil)")
return true
}
..
}
Output
MYServiceA
- instance=true
- text=some a text
MYServiceB
- instance=true
- text=some b text
- serviceA.instance=false
Typhoon assemblies make good use of the ObjC runtime's dyanmic dispatch features. Assemblies are reflected, and each method intercepted (applying an AOP 'around' advice) so that Typhoon has a blueprint to build each of the components in the app's assembly. However, Swift will try to use static/vtable dispatch where possible (which prevents the required method interception).
To instruct Swift that dynamic dispatch is required, mark your assembly methods as 'dynamic'.
Example: (Requires Xcode6 beta 6)
public class MYAssembly : TyphoonAssembly {
public dynamic func serviceA() -> AnyObject {
var definitionBlock : TyphoonDefinitionBlock = {
(definition : TyphoonDefinition!) in
definition.injectProperty("text", with: "some a text")
definition.scope = TyphoonScopeSingleton
}
return TyphoonDefinition.withClass(MYServiceA.classForCoder(),
configuration: definitionBlock)
}
public dynamic func serviceB() -> AnyObject {
var definitionBlock : TyphoonDefinitionBlock = {
(definition : TyphoonDefinition!) in
definition.injectProperty("text", with: "some b text")
definition.injectProperty("serivceA", with: self.serviceA())
definition.scope = TyphoonScopeSingleton
}
return TyphoonDefinition.withClass(MYServiceB.classForCoder(),
configuration: definitionBlock)
}
}
