Hprose for Swift

Hprose is a High Performance Remote Object Service Engine.

It is a modern, lightweight, cross-language, cross-platform, object-oriented, high performance, remote dynamic communication middleware. It is not only easy to use, but powerful. You just need a little time to learn, then you can use it to easily construct cross language cross platform distributed application system.

Hprose supports many programming languages, for example:

• AAuto Quicker
• ActionScript
• ASP
• C++
• Dart
• Delphi/Free Pascal
• dotNET(C#, Visual Basic...)
• Golang
• Java
• JavaScript
• Node.js
• Objective-C/Swift
• Perl
• PHP
• Python
• Ruby
• ...

Through Hprose, You can conveniently and efficiently intercommunicate between those programming languages.

This project is the implementation of Hprose for Swift.

In fact, Swift can be using with Cocoa and Objective-C, so we don't need to rewrite hprose in Swift again. We only need to use Hprose for Objective-C in Swift.

To use Hprose for Objective-C in Swift, you should to create a Bridging-Header.h like this:

#ifndef BridgingHeader_h
#define BridgingHeader_h
#import "Hprose.h"
#endif

Then you can use hprose in Swift now. for example:

import Foundation

class User:NSObject {
    var name: String = ""
    var age: Int = 0
    var married: Bool = false
    var birthday: NSDate?
    var sex: Int = 0
}

@objc protocol Hello {
    func hello(name:String) -> String
    func sum(a:Int, b:Int, c:Int) -> Int
    func swapKeyAndValue(dict: [String: String]) -> [String: String]
    func getUserList() -> Array<User>;
}

HproseClassManager.registerClass(User.self, withAlias: "User")
var client = HproseHttpClient("http://www.hprose.com/example/index.php")
var h: AnyObject! = client.useService(Hello)
println(h.hello("world"))
println(h.hello("hprose"))
println(h.hello("中文"))
println(h.sum(1,b:2,c:3))
println(h.swapKeyAndValue([
    "January": "Jan",
    "February": "Feb",
    "March": "Mar",
    "April": "Apr"
]));
var sexStrings = ["Unknown", "Male", "Female", "InterSex"];
var users = h.getUserList();
for user in users {
    println(user.name)
    println(user.age)
    println(user.married)
    println(user.birthday)
    println(sexStrings[user.sex])
}
