Wait for all Operations in queue to finish before performing task

Question

I have an Operation subclass and Operation queue with maxConcurrentOperationCount = 1.

This performs my operations in a sequential order that i add them which is goo

Answer 1

A suitable solution is KVO

First before the loop add the observer (assuming queue is the OperationQueue instance)

queue.addObserver(self, forKeyPath:"operations", options:.new, context:nil)

Then implement

override func observeValue(forKeyPath keyPath: String?, of object: Any?, change: [NSKeyValueChangeKey : Any]?, context: UnsafeMutableRawPointer?) {
    if object as? OperationQueue == queue && keyPath == "operations" {
        if queue.operations.isEmpty {
            // Do something here when your queue has completed
            self.queue.removeObserver(self, forKeyPath:"operations")
        }
    } else {
        super.observeValue(forKeyPath: keyPath, of: object, change: change, context: context)
    }
}

Edit:

In Swift 4 it's much easier

Declare a property:

var observation : NSKeyValueObservation?

and create the observer

observation = queue.observe(\.operationCount, options: [.new]) { [unowned self] (queue, change) in
    if change.newValue! == 0 {
        // Do something here when your queue has completed
        self.observation = nil
    }
}
