[swift-users] Reducing Array<OptionSet> to OptionSet

[Jon Shier]

	Yes, just in a generic fashion. I don’t have so many OptionSets to decode that writing the typed reduce code over and over again is terrible, I just hoped there would be a way to write it generically. I just can’t seem to get the types to work out. I’m just missing the final step, generically reducing an array of OptionSet values to a single OptionSet value.

I was looking more for a generic approach that I could apply to all of the various OptionSets I have to decode from JSON. I suppose whether it’s from an array of strings or array of the OptionSet is less important, but getting to the array of the OptionSet itself is something I can already do.

I can decode the arrays of strings into an array of individual OptionSet values, but I’ve run into a dead end when trying generically reduce the array of OptionSets to a single OptionSet value. I’ve tried variety of ways of definition a Collection extension, even tried defining a global function, but I can’t seem to use the OptionSet sequence initializer or reduce itself (cannot invoke insert with argument of type (OptionSet) (or T)). Any guidance here?
