Generic list parse about alamofirejsontoobjects HOT 6 CLOSED

indeed you have to use the setValue forUndefinedKey.
here is a unit test that will show you how to use generics:
https://github.com/evermeer/EVReflection/blob/68edace301602dd43181075c604a1f987185be3f/EVReflection/EVReflectionTests/WorkaroundSwiftGenericsTests.swift#L16-46
And to make that work, you have to add the EVGenericsKVC protocol after your class definition

Thank you, it worked, but the [T] was not being detected as a [ProductModel]. A have been able to cast a single T to a Object, but not [T] to [Objects], example:

           //var list = response!.records as! [ProductModel]! this wont work, as ProductModel is not a U

           var list = response!.records as [U]!

            for product in list {
                var products : [ProductModel] = [ProductModel]();

                var p = product as! ProductModel
                products.append(p)
                println(product is ProductModel)
                println("id: " + p.name!);
            }

Is there a way to cast the entire list (sorry for asking, but i really cant found anything about it)? By the way, i'm trying to archieve this pattern:

ViewController:

    var c : CallListListener<ProductModel> = CallListListener<ProductModel>()
    GenericDao<ProductModel>().getAll(c);

GenericDao

  Alamofire.request(method, serverUrl + URL, headers: getHeaders())
      .responseObject {
          (response: JsonMessageList<U>?, error: NSError?) in

Thanks in advance.

Ah, this could be 2 things.

1. a generic array is of type Any and not AnyObject or NSObject. Then you should implement something like this: https://github.com/evermeer/EVReflection/blob/bb630dfb7759f3269ad872ba9e01b133d7b8e67c/EVReflection/EVReflectionTests/WorkaroundsTests.swift#L83-97
2. in the setValue forUndefinedKey you will receive an array of dictionaries. So instead of assigning and casting it directly, you have to map it to your objects like this:
   array = (value as! NSArray).map({T(dictionary:$0)})

At the moment I can't create a sample for you. I will have a look at it tomorrow.

I was wrong. It should just work. I created a new unit test that shows this. Here it is:
https://github.com/evermeer/EVReflection/blob/c0de1d56f2589df7c0650a33ddb06b539a116d2b/EVReflection/EVReflectionTests/WorkaroundSwiftGenericsTests.swift#L25-35

In your json, do you have a root object with the property records which will contain an array of your product model records? So something like this: {"records":[{"property":"value"},{"property":"value2"}]}
Or is the root of the json already an array? like this: [{"property":"value"},{"property":"value2"}]
If so, then you need to use .responseArray instead of .responseObject

Thank you for your time man, now its working, My json was an object with an array inside. But i'm ashamed too say that my error was not typing records:

 var records = [T]()

Should be:

    var records : [T] = [T]()

My mistake, sorry. And just for helping others: Appcode will not convert your T objects to the actual model type (it will not autocomplete, but if you type list[0].someproperty it will work).

Great that I could be of help. And now there are more unit tests that show how it should work. And we know that it does work. So no problem!
