Unable to access Swift 4 class from Objective-C: "Property not found on object of type"
The rules for exposing Swift code to Objective-C have changed in Swift 4. Try this instead:
@objc var foobar = true
As an optimization, @objc
inference have been reduced in Swift 4. For instance, a property within an NSObject
-derived class, such as your TestViewController
, will no longer infer @objc
by default (as it did in Swift 3).
Alternatively, you could also expose all members to Objective-C at once using @objcMembers
:
@objcMembers class TestViewController: UIViewController { ...}
This new design is fully detailed in the corresponding Swift Evolution proposal.
Swift 3.2/4.0 / XCode 9.1
You you set swift3.2 in project settings ( //:configuration = DebugSWIFT_VERSION = 3.2 )
you can use your code,(using the correct import file in objc, see below).If You set project to swift 4.0 ( //:configuration = DebugSWIFT_VERSION = 4.0 )
You must prepend @objc for every property.
So:
Swift 3.2:
// MyClass.swift@objc class MyClass: NSObject{ var s1: String? @objc var s2 : String?}//// ViewController.mimport "MixingObjCAndSwift-Swift.h"#import "ViewController.h"@interface ViewController ()@end@implementation ViewController- (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad]; MyClass * mc = [MyClass new]; NSString * s1 = mc.s1; NSString * s2 = mc.s2;}
works.
Swift 4.0:
// MyClass.swift@objc class MyClass: NSObject{ var s1: String? @objc var s2 : String?}..... - (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad]; MyClass * mc = [MyClass new]; NSString * s1 = mc.s1; NSString * s2 = mc.s2;}
does NOT works: compiler fails:
/Users....ViewController.m:24:21: Property 's1' not found on object of type 'MyClass *'
as s1 is not prepended with @objc.
You must write:
@objc class MyClass: NSObject{ @objc var s1: String? @objc var s2 : String?}
(As a side-note: in C/C++/ObJC file, put always system/general *h files before your "local" class headers.)
Swift 4
just add @objcMembers before class@objcMembers class MyClassObject: NSObject{ var s1: String! var s2: String!

As for Swift 5.1 I found that "@objc" is not enough, but also make it public "@objc public":
@objc public class SomeClass: NSObject { @objc public let amount: NSNumber...
