We know that AnyObject can only represent an instance of any class type. Link
I have SimpleStruct structure:
struct SimpleStruct {
var value: Int = 0
}
And casting() Function
func casting() { //1
var ss1: AnyObject //2
// ss1 = SimpleStruct(value: 10) //Value of type 'SimpleStruct' does not conform to 'AnyObject' in assignment
ss1 = SimpleStruct(value: 10) as AnyObject //4
if let ss = ss1 as? SimpleStruct { //Why is this casting succeed //5
print(ss.value) //6 "print 10"
}
}
In line 3 structure assignment in AnyObject var is not possible.
Why in line 4 SimpleStruct to AnyObject casting and assignment is successful?
Why in line 5 AnyObject to SimpleStruct casting and assignment is successful?
