I have two related protocols, JSONDecodable and CompressedDecodable, and CompressedDecodable inherits from JSONDecodable (though that relationship isn’t strictly necessary). I also have a generic function that’s overloaded for each of those protocols. I’m trying to write a class to make a network request expecting a generic response type of either JSONDecodable or CompressedDecodable. However, it doesn’t seem possible to write it in such a way that the overload I need is called. Instead, it’s always the superclass’ type’s overload that is called. For example:<br><br>protocol JSONDecodable { init() }<br>protocol CompressedDecodable: JSONDecodable { }<br><br>class NetworkRequest<T: JSONDecodable> {<br> <br> var response: T?<br> <br> func doAThing() {<br> response = doSomething()<br> }<br>}<br><br>class CompressedNetworkRequest<U: CompressedDecodable>: NetworkRequest<U> {<br> <br>}<br><br>func doSomething<T: JSONDecodable>() -> T {<br> print("One: \(T.self)")<br> return T()<br>}<br><br>func doSomething<T: CompressedDecodable>() -> T {<br> print("Two: \(T.self)")<br> return T()<br>}<br><br>struct Uno: JSONDecodable { }<br>struct Dos: CompressedDecodable { }<br><br>NetworkRequest<Uno>().doAThing()<br>CompressedNetworkRequest<Dos>().doAThing()<br><br>In a playground this prints:<br><br>One: Uno<br>One: Dos<br><br>Ultimately, I understand why this happens (NetworkRequest’s generic type is always going to be JSONDecodable, no matter if it’s actually a subtype). Is there any way, aside from completely duplicating the class, to call the overload appropriate for the type passed in a class like this? <br><br><br><br>Jon Shier<br>_______________________________________________<br>swift-users mailing list<br>swift-users@swift.org<br>https://lists.swift.org/mailman/listinfo/swift-users<br></div></div></span></blockquote></div><div class="bloop_markdown"><p></p></div></body></html>
