Over the past few weeks, the open source community has started to ramp up development of C++ Interop. As more people work on interop, there are more moving parts, and more room for mis-communication. To combat this, I am going to start sending out weekly status updates. These will be fairly fine-grained summaries of the work that has happened over the last week. Here is the first one:
| Forward Interop | ||
|---|---|---|
| Diagnostics |
 Landed |
@nuriamari enabled diagnostics for un-importable APIs ('cannot find X' -> 'cannot use X because it cannot be imported'). |
| Ownership bridging |
 Started |
@nuriamari started working on importing subscripts with read accessors. This will improve performance. |
| Generics |
 In Progress |
@zoecarver posted a pitch for bridging templates. |
| Stability imporvements |
In Progress |
@zoecarver fixed various crashes and usability issues. |
| Ergonomics |
In Progress |
@bro4all worked on importing C++ getters/setters as computed properties. |
| Reverse Interop |
||
|---|---|---|
| Importing Swift modules to C++ |
Landed |
@Alex_L landed support for generating namespaces from Swift modules. |
| Importing Swift functions to C++ |
Started |
@Alex_L explored options for importing Swift funtions to C++. |
| Unified Header |
In Progess |
@Alex_L designed unified headers, allowing C, Objective-C, C++, and Objective-C++ to compose. |
