Ok, instead of using rethrows, would it be a better overall design be to define two overloads, one that takes a throwing closure and one that doesn’t? This allows the throw-supporting implementation to be slower without punishing the normal case.. -Chris _______________________________________________ swift-evolution mailing list swift-evolution@swift.org https://lists.swift.org/mailman/listinfo/swift-evolution
