Key Path Strings

  • Gets the components of a given key path as a string.

    Warning

    Objects that declare properties with the old @objc dynamic syntax are not fully supported by this function, and it is recommened that you use @Persisted to declare your properties if you wish to use this function to its full benefit.

    Example:

    let name = ObjectBase._name(for: \Person.dogs[0].name) // "dogs.name"
// Note that the above KeyPath expression is only supported with properties declared
// with `@Persisted`.
let nested = ObjectBase._name(for: \Person.address.city.zip) // "address.city.zip"

    Declaration

    Swift

    public func _name<T>(for keyPath: PartialKeyPath<T>) -> String where T : ObjectBase
