<p>Creating hacks like unreachable types with hidden inits is prohibited.</p>

<p>Have fun!</p>

<div dir="ltr">Sorry, I have read through this thread twice and do
not understand the point you are making. Can you explain your
example once more?
<div><br></div>
<div>Specifically, I do not understand why it is that your code
should have problems with third-party types that conform to your
protocol. If your protocol has requirements that third-party types
cannot fulfill, then naturally those requirements will prevent a
third-party from conforming new types to your protocol. OTOH, if
your protocol does not have any requirements that third-party types
cannot fulfill, then your code that accepts anything that conforms
to your protocol should be indifferent to whether the conforming
type is defined by you or someone else. After all, a conforming
type would fulfill all the semantic and syntactic requirements of
the protocol! If your protocol has requirements that you are unable
to state in code, causing third-party types to conform that really
shouldn&#39;t, then that is a case for additional features that allow
you to express those requirements more accurately, not an argument
for having protocols that can&#39;t be conformed to by a third-party.
What am I missing?</div>

Can you make this work with variables - not just literals - and

requiring an enum case constructor to be used by clients?

<div><span style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">I am unsure if
this feature is a good idea. Does someone have a real-world use for
this which isn’t just hiding strong implementation coupling behind
a protocol?<br>
<br>
When I consume a protocol, it is under the assumption that the
protocol is documented such that I would be able to work against
*any* implementation of the protocol. With a closed protocol, I
would have to assume that there are significant side effects,
either undocumented or difficult for a third party to duplicate. To
my experience, that sounds brittle.<br>
<br>
Assuming you aren’t switching on the implementing type of a
protocol (which itself can be a sign that your design isn’t
properly using polymorphism), one could get this design by creating
a struct with the interface desired, and passing invocations
through to an internal protocol reference.<br>

&gt; ## Motivation<br>
&gt;<span class="m_2275515528959643236m_2643987633502928267Apple-converted-space"> </span><br>
&gt; A general principle the Swift community has adopted for access
control is that defaults should reserve maximum flexibility for a
library. The ensures that any capabilities beyond mere visibility
are not available unless the author of the library has explicitly
declared their intent that the capabilities be made available.
Finally, when it is possible to switch from one semantic to another
without breaking clients (but not vice-versa) we should prefer the
more forgiving (i.e. fixable) semantic as the (soft) default.<br>
&gt;<span class="m_2275515528959643236m_2643987633502928267Apple-converted-space"> </span><br>
&gt; `public` is considered a &quot;soft default&quot; in the sense that it
is the first access modifier a user will reach for when exposing a
declaration outside of the module. In the case of protocols the
current meaning of `public` does not meet the principle of
preserving maximum flexibility for the author of the library. It
allows users of the library to conform to the protocol.<br>
&gt;<span class="m_2275515528959643236m_2643987633502928267Apple-converted-space"> </span><br>
&gt; There are good reasons a library may not wish to allow users
to add conformances to a protocol. For example, it may not wish to
expose the conforming concrete types. While similar behavior could
be accomplished with an enum if cases could be private, that
requires an implementation to use switch statements rather than
polymorphism.<br>
&gt;<span class="m_2275515528959643236m_2643987633502928267Apple-converted-space"> </span><br>
&gt; Even if all the conforming types are also public there are
cases where polymorphism is the preferred implementation. For
example, if the set of conforming types is not expected to be fixed
(despite all being inside the library) the authors may not want to
have to maintain switch statements every time they need to add or
remove a confroming type which would be necessary if an enum were
used instead. Polymorphism allows us to avoid this, giving us the
ability to add and remove conforming types within the
implementation of the library without the burden of maintaining
switch statements.<br>

&gt; Aligning the access modifiers for protocols and classes allows
us to specify both conformable and non-conformable protocols,
provides a soft default that is consistent with the principle of
(soft) defaults reserving maximum flexibility for the library, and
increases the overall consistency of the language by aligning the
semantics of access control for protocols and classes.<br>

&gt; The standard library currently has at least one protocol
(`MirrorPath`) that is documented as disallowing client
conformances. If this proposal is adopted it is likely that
`MirrorPath` would be declared `public protocol` and not `open
protocol`.<br>

&gt; Jordan Rose has indicated that the Apple frameworks also
include a number of protocols documented with the intent that users
do not add conformances. Perhaps an importer annotation would allow
the compiler to enforce these semantics in Swift code as
well.<br>

&gt; The proposed solution is to change the meaning of `public
protocol` to disallow conformances outside the declaring module and
introduce `open protocol` to allow conformances outside the
decalring module (equivalent to the current meaning of `public

&gt; 1. In Swift 4, introduce the `open` keyword and the `@nonopen`
attribute (which can be applied to `public protocol` to give it the
new semantics of `public`).<br>

possible that it could be an additivie ABI change where the ABI for
