Extend protocol to return struct that conforms

[joshuakcockrell]

Looks like this pattern doesn't work with Skip. I'm trying to find workarounds right now.

Usage

let formatter = FormRowFormatter.email

Expression 'Companion' of type 'EmailFormatter.Companion' cannot be invoked as a function. The function 'invoke()' is not found

Thanks for reporting it! Does it work when you just replace Self with EmailFormatter?

extension FormRowFormatter where Self == EmailFormatter {
    static var email: EmailFormatter { return EmailFormatter() }
}

[joshuakcockrell]

That doesn't work, unfortunately. It results in this Kotlin

[joshuakcockrell]

I can just drop this pattern in the meantime.

Instead of
let formatter = FormRowFormatter.email
I will do
let formatter = EmailFormatter()

so it's not a blocker for me.

[aabewhite]

I'll look into this.

Did you try static var email: EmailFormatter { return EmailFormatter() }?

[joshuakcockrell]

@aabewhite Looks like that combo works in Swift & Kotlin!

[aabewhite]

Good! I'm almost done with a fix so that Self will work too. I'll probably push it tonight along with several other fixes I'm working on

(I also haven't forgotten about @focusstate, but I need to clear out some backlog from vacation first)

[joshuakcockrell]

No rush on @FocusState. I've got plenty to migrate over!

This should now be fixed in skip 0.8.50, and you can use Self as you were before. Use File->Packages->Update to Latest to get the latest transpiler with the fix
