swift protocol, IBOutlet property cannot have non-object type

Question

I would like to wire up a custom swift delegate in IB. The delegate is an object that implements a certain protocol in swift.

Answer 1

Not ideal, but an option is to do something like this:

@IBOutlet var objectType: NSObject!

private var conformingObject: SomeProtocol {
  return objectType as SomeProtocol
}

Got to make sure your objectType conforms to SomeProtocol or things will explode
