Equivalent of or alternative to CGPathApply in Swift?

Question

In the pre-release documentation there appears to be no Swift version of CGPathApply. Is there an equivalent or alternative? I\'m trying to get all subpaths of a CGPath so t

Here's the highlights from Ole Begemann's great post (thanks @Gouldsc!), adapted for Swift 3, which allows for accessing the individual elements composing a UIBezierPath instance:

extension UIBezierPath {

    var elements: [PathElement] {
        var pathElements = [PathElement]()
        withUnsafeMutablePointer(to: &pathElements) { elementsPointer in
            cgPath.apply(info: elementsPointer) { (userInfo, nextElementPointer) in
                let nextElement = PathElement(element: nextElementPointer.pointee)
                let elementsPointer = userInfo!.assumingMemoryBound(to: [PathElement].self)
                elementsPointer.pointee.append(nextElement)
            }
        }
        return pathElements
    }

}

public enum PathElement {

    case moveToPoint(CGPoint)
    case addLineToPoint(CGPoint)
    case addQuadCurveToPoint(CGPoint, CGPoint)
    case addCurveToPoint(CGPoint, CGPoint, CGPoint)
    case closeSubpath

    init(element: CGPathElement) {
        switch element.type {
        case .moveToPoint: self = .moveToPoint(element.points[0])
        case .addLineToPoint: self = .addLineToPoint(element.points[0])
        case .addQuadCurveToPoint: self = .addQuadCurveToPoint(element.points[0], element.points[1])
        case .addCurveToPoint: self = .addCurveToPoint(element.points[0], element.points[1], element.points[2])
        case .closeSubpath: self = .closeSubpath
        }
    }

}
