swift - 在 Swift 中返回实例类型

Question

我正在尝试进行此扩展:

extension UIViewController
{
    class func initialize(storyboardName: String, storyboardId: String) -> Self
    {
        let storyboad = UIStoryboard(name: storyboardName, bundle: nil)
        let controller = storyboad.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier(storyboardId) as! Self

        return controller
    }
}

但是我得到了编译错误:

error: cannot convert return expression of type 'UIViewController' to return type 'Self'

这可能吗？我也想把它变成 init(storyboardName: String, storyboardId: String)

类似于Using 'self' in class extension functions in Swift ，你可以定义一个通用的辅助方法，它从调用上下文中推断出 self 的类型:

extension UIViewController
{
    class func instantiateFromStoryboard(storyboardName: String, storyboardId: String) -> Self
    {
        return instantiateFromStoryboardHelper(storyboardName, storyboardId: storyboardId)
    }

    private class func instantiateFromStoryboardHelper<T>(storyboardName: String, storyboardId: String) -> T
    {
        let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: storyboardName, bundle: nil)
        let controller = storyboard.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier(storyboardId) as! T
        return controller
    }
}

然后

let vc = MyViewController.instantiateFromStoryboard("name", storyboardId: "id")

编译，类型被推断为MyViewController。

Swift 3 的更新:

extension UIViewController
{
    class func instantiateFromStoryboard(storyboardName: String, storyboardId: String) -> Self
    {
        return instantiateFromStoryboardHelper(storyboardName: storyboardName, storyboardId: storyboardId)
    }

    private class func instantiateFromStoryboardHelper<T>(storyboardName: String, storyboardId: String) -> T
    {
        let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: storyboardName, bundle: nil)
        let controller = storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: storyboardId) as! T
        return controller
    }
}

另一种可能的解决方案，使用 unsafeDowncast:

extension UIViewController
{
    class func instantiateFromStoryboard(storyboardName: String, storyboardId: String) -> Self
    {
        let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: storyboardName, bundle: nil)
        let controller = storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: storyboardId)
        return unsafeDowncast(controller, to: self)
    }
}
