[swift-users] Any way to declare a method that suppresses the string interpolation warning?

[Rick Mann]

I have a debugLog() method that looks like this:

func
debugLog<T>(_ inMsg: T, _ inFile : String = #file, _ inLine : Int = #line)
{
	let df = DateFormatter()
	df.dateFormat = "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSS"
	let time = df.string(from: Date())
	
	let file = (inFile as NSString).lastPathComponent
	print("\(time) \(file):\(inLine)    \(inMsg)")
}

Is there any way to decorate it so that string interpolation of optionals passed to it inMsg don't produce the warning about using debugDescription? In the case of debug logging, that's completely acceptable, and I don't want to have to write String(describing:) everywhere.
