#ifdef replacement in the Swift language

Question

In C/C++/Objective C you can define a macro using compiler preprocessors. Moreover, you can include/exclude some parts of code using compiler preprocessors.

Answer 1

There are some processors that take an argument and I listed them below. you can change the argument as you like:

#if os(macOS) /* Checks the target operating system */

#if canImport(UIKit) /* Check if a module presents */

#if swift(<5) /* Check the Swift version */

#if targetEnvironment(simulator) /* Check envrionments like Simulator or Catalyst */

#if compiler(<7) /* Check compiler version */

Also, You can use any custom flags like DEBUG or any other flags you defined

#if DEBUG
print("Debug mode")
#endif
