I am working on a project which is mix of Objective C and Swift.

I have some Codable objects which I need to use in Objective C but these are not inherited from NSObject. If I make them inherit from NSObject I am not able to convert to json string using JSONEncoder

class Sample:NSObject, Codable
{

var name:String = "Lucien"
var data:[String:String] = ["token":"121bnkfjas"]

}
let sample = Sample()

   let jsonData =   try JSONEncoder().encode(sample)
   let jsonString = String(data: jsonData, encoding: .utf8)!

I have a jsonString as {}.

If I make only Confirm to Codable protocol it is working properly.

 class Sample:Codable
    {

    var name:String = "Lucien"
    var data:[String:String] = ["token":"121bnkfjas"]

    }
    let sample = Sample()

       let jsonData =   try JSONEncoder().encode(sample)
       let jsonString = String(data: jsonData, encoding: .utf8)!

This jsonString is proper.

How can I use only Codable objects in Objective C?

Means you want to use Swift Codable object with code of objective c? – Ashish Kakkad Feb 12 '19 at 05:04
Yes I want to use Swift Codable object in Objective C. – AppleBee Feb 12 '19 at 05:18
You can't access anything which has generics from objc, but you can have "middleware" class that trigger the job you need or convert objects into simpler versions without generics – Macistador Feb 12 '19 at 11:34
