这是一个类型安全的集合，用于保存弱对象的容器。当它被访问时，它也会自动移除nil容器/包装器。

例子:

protocol SomeDelegate: class {
    func doSomething()
}

class SomeViewController: UIViewController {
    var delegates: WeakCollection<SomeDelegate> = []

    func someFunction(delegate: SomeDelegate) {
        delegates.append(delegate)
    }

    func runDelegates() {
        delegates.forEach { $0.doSomething() }
    }
}

你可以和weakObjectsHashTable一起使用NSHashTable。NSHashTable < ObjectType > .weakObjectsHashTable ()

对于Swift 3: NSHashTable<ObjectType>.weakObjects()

NSHashTable类引用

OS X v10.5及以上版本支持。 支持iOS 6.0及以上版本。

我有同样的想法来创建带有泛型的弱容器。 因此，我为NSHashTable创建了包装器:

class WeakSet<ObjectType>: SequenceType {

    var count: Int {
        return weakStorage.count
    }

    private let weakStorage = NSHashTable.weakObjectsHashTable()

    func addObject(object: ObjectType) {
        guard object is AnyObject else { fatalError("Object (\(object)) should be subclass of AnyObject") }
        weakStorage.addObject(object as? AnyObject)
    }

    func removeObject(object: ObjectType) {
        guard object is AnyObject else { fatalError("Object (\(object)) should be subclass of AnyObject") }
        weakStorage.removeObject(object as? AnyObject)
    }

    func removeAllObjects() {
        weakStorage.removeAllObjects()
    }

    func containsObject(object: ObjectType) -> Bool {
        guard object is AnyObject else { fatalError("Object (\(object)) should be subclass of AnyObject") }
        return weakStorage.containsObject(object as? AnyObject)
    }

    func generate() -> AnyGenerator<ObjectType> {
        let enumerator = weakStorage.objectEnumerator()
        return anyGenerator {
            return enumerator.nextObject() as! ObjectType?
        }
    }
}

用法:

protocol MyDelegate : AnyObject {
    func doWork()
}

class MyClass: AnyObject, MyDelegate {
    fun doWork() {
        // Do delegated work.
    }
}

var delegates = WeakSet<MyDelegate>()
delegates.addObject(MyClass())

for delegate in delegates {
    delegate.doWork()
}

这不是最好的解决方案，因为WeakSet可以初始化为任何类型，如果这种类型不符合AnyObject协议，那么应用程序将崩溃，并给出详细的原因。但我现在找不到更好的解决办法。

最初的解决方案是这样定义WeakSet:

class WeakSet<ObjectType: AnyObject>: SequenceType {}

但是在这种情况下，WeakSet不能用协议初始化:

protocol MyDelegate : AnyObject {
    func doWork()
}

let weakSet = WeakSet<MyDelegate>()

目前以上代码无法编译(Swift 2.1, Xcode 7.1)。 这就是为什么我放弃符合AnyObject并使用fatalError()断言添加额外的保护。

现有的WeakContainer示例很有帮助，但它并不能真正帮助在现有的快速容器(如列表和字典)中使用弱引用。

如果您想使用List方法，如contains，那么WeakContainer将需要实现Equatable。因此，我添加了允许WeakContainer是相等的代码。

如果您想在字典中使用WeakContainer，我还将其设置为可哈希的，以便可以将其用作字典键。

我还将其重命名为WeakObject，以强调这仅适用于类类型，并将其与WeakContainer示例区分开来:

struct WeakObject<TYPE where TYPE:AnyObject> : Equatable, Hashable
{
    weak var _value : TYPE?
    let _originalHashValue : Int

    init (value: TYPE)
    {
        _value = value

        // We keep around the original hash value so that we can return it to represent this
        // object even if the value became Nil out from under us because the object went away.
        _originalHashValue = ObjectIdentifier(value).hashValue
    }

    var value : TYPE?
    {
        return _value
    }

    var hashValue: Int
    {
        return _originalHashValue
    }
}

func ==<T>(lhs: WeakObject<T>, rhs: WeakObject<T>) -> Bool
{
    if lhs.value == nil  &&  rhs.value == nil {
        return true
    }
    else if lhs.value == nil  ||  rhs.value == nil {
        return false
    }

    // If the objects are the same, then we are good to go
    return lhs.value! === rhs.value!
}

这允许你做一些很酷的事情，比如使用弱引用字典:

private var m_observerDict : Dictionary<WeakObject<AnyObject>,FLObservationBlock> = Dictionary()

func addObserver( observer:AnyObject, block:FLObservationBlock )
{
    let weakObserver = WeakObject(value:observer)
    m_observerDict[weakObserver] = block
}


func removeObserver( observer:AnyObject )
{
    let weakObserver = WeakObject(value:observer)
    m_observerDict.removeValueForKey(weakObserver)
}

函数式编程方法

不需要额外的课程。

简单地定义一个闭包数组()-> Foo?并使用[weak foo]将foo实例捕获为弱实例。

let foo = Foo()

var foos = [() -> Foo?]()
foos.append({ [weak foo] in return foo })

foos.forEach { $0()?.doSomething() }
