I want a generic UIPageViewControllerDataSource
that can do its thing based on two generic parameters, like so:
protocol ItemDisplaying where Self: UIViewController {
associatedtype T
var item: T { get }
init(item: T)
}
final class LinearPageDataSource<V: ItemDisplaying> {
let items: [V.T]
init(items: [V.T]) {}
}
However, a method within the data source like this:
private func indexOf(_ viewController: V) -> Int {
return items.firstIndex(of: viewController.item) ?? NSNotFound
}
Errors out with Argument of type VT does not conform to expected type 'Equatable'
. Therefore, I added explicitly this code: class OnboardingContentViewController<T: Codable & Equatable>: UIViewController, ItemDisplaying
so I can show that the type of the item passed in as T
in the ViewController is Codable & Equatable
.
I'm getting stuck in what I'm trying to achieve, I'd like to have a data source that takes an array of items that are at least Codable & Equatable
and I'd like to keep a generic possibility for a type of UIViewController
to be passed in. How can I best achieve this?
I didn't notice that an associatedtype
can't refer to another protocol, but has to refer to a concrete type. Therefore the following works:
protocol ItemDisplaying where Self: UIViewController {
associatedtype T: Decodable & Equatable
var item: T { get }
init(item: T)
}
final class LinearPageDataSource<V: ItemDisplaying>: NSObject, UIPageViewControllerDataSource {
let items: [V.T]
init(items: [V.T]) {
self.items = items
}
func contentViewController(atIndex index: Int) -> V? {
return V.init(item: items[index])
}
final class OnboardingContentViewController: UIViewController, ItemDisplaying {
typealias T = OnboardingItem // this is a struct, conforming to Decodable and Equatable
let item: T
required init(item: T) {
self.item = item
}
}
