[sunilprajapatisa]

Currently supporting latest branch to swift 4.2 ? or any other branch ?

[qiter]

thx please pod install 4.2 Lib! soon! thx!

[Khalian]

The official effort to update to swift 4.2 is now underway : https://github.com/goktugyil/EZSwiftExtensions/pull/496 which also includes the old PRs that attempt to migrate it. Please review the changes.

Sorry for the delay. I had some issues migrating to later versions of XCodes, but that is now fixed, so you can expect faster response cycles from me on version updates.

Also @goktugyil I would need your final sign off before merging this.

[Esqarrouth]

Sure, ping me when it's complete

[ashislaha]

Any idea when it will be upgraded into swift 4.2. @Khalian any update from your side?

[Khalian]

@goktugyil I got the Ios stuff to build, but not the mac and tvos targets, and I cannot reproduce it on my local environment. Can you take a look? https://github.com/goktugyil/EZSwiftExtensions/pull/496.

[Khalian]

@goktugyil referencing https://travis-ci.org/goktugyil/EZSwiftExtensions/builds/453835156?utm_source=github_status&utm_medium=notification.

- ERROR | xcodebuild:  /Users/travis/build/goktugyil/EZSwiftExtensions/Sources/EZSwiftFunctions.swift:205:75: error: 'userDidTakeScreenshotNotification' has been renamed to 'NSNotification.Name.UIApplicationUserDidTakeScreenshot'

There is a whole bunch of UIKit naming changes crap that is a part of swift 4.2 for some reason. This is weird because.

1. This actually builds fine for both ios and tvos, and just falls apart of macOS on travis.
2. All targets and tests run fine on XCode 10.1 on my system.

I really am not an expert with anything related with UIKit and this is beyond my expertise (particularly because of the fact that I might some cause some sort of regression, we dont have particularly good unit test overage on the non Foundation classes).

ANY HELP FROM ANYONE ON THIS BRANCH WOULD BE APPRECIATED RIGHT NOW.

You would think that Swift and Apple would care for backwards compatibility on all its platform, but whoever designs these APIs appear to be horribly brain damaged.

@Khalian Update the .swift-version file to 4.2 should fix those pod lint errors, just tried on my repo.

[Khalian]

@isimple4 Definitely helped but theres a new issue now

pod lib lint -> EZSwiftExtensions (2.0) - NOTE | xcodebuild: note: Using new build system - NOTE | xcodebuild: note: Planning build - NOTE | xcodebuild: note: Constructing build description - NOTE | xcodebuild: warning: Capabilities for App may not function correctly because its entitlements use a placeholder team ID. To resolve this, select a development team in the build settings editor. (in target 'App') - NOTE | xcodebuild: warning: Skipping code signing because the target does not have an Info.plist file. (in target 'App')

I will take a look at this new nonsense tomorrow.

[isimple4]

@Khalian There are some issues still around after Xcode 10. Check https://github.com/CocoaPods/CocoaPods/issues/8116 and https://github.com/CocoaPods/CocoaPods/issues/8125 for more information.

[isimple4]

That might be an issue of Travis when simulator was interrupted before starting tests. Not able to reproduce locally.

[Khalian]

@isimple4 Neither can I. And retries do not seem to help. I raised a forum issue on the travis community forum for guidance. https://travis-ci.community/t/cant-run-unit-tests-on-swift-4-2-xcode-10/848. Maybe we can ask for more powerful travis workers or something like that.

[isimple4]

@Khalian There is an issue https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-ci/issues/6675 discussing about it for couple of years but leaving no official solution. IMHO we could ship it after fixing pod warnings since everything looks locally good to go.

[relsirc]

any update on this?

[lenvonsam]

how to work on swift4.2

[Esqarrouth]

An update for 5 is coming: https://github.com/goktugyil/EZSwiftExtensions/pull/501

To work on swift4.2 you can change the version of your pod to 3. You can have separate swift versions in different frameworks you use in the project.

[Sampri21]

@goktugyil Can you please update for Swift4.2 in replacing UIWebview to WKWebView..as apple is rejecting the app's

[Esqarrouth]
