I updated the proposal https://github.com/wh1pch81n/swift-evolution/blob/master/proposals/NNNN-Swift-enum-strings-ported-to-Objective-c.md
And I also posted the question on Reddit. https://www.reddit.com/r/ObjectiveC/comments/5livbi/improve_ns_string_enum/?st=IXJK9UXL&sh=80e8c7d8 On Wed, Jan 4, 2017 at 2:51 PM Derrick Ho <wh1pch...@gmail.com> wrote: The underline can be omitted.

My one concern in this case would be choosing a naming convention for the back port that makes sense both ways. The naming convention you propose ( EnumName_EnumCase) seems inconsistent with the current import of strings from Obj-C to Swift. Could we find a way to unify them?

Can we make a swift enum string interoperable with Objective-C? Currently NS_STRING_ENUM ports from objective-c to swift but not the other way around. I feel that if you can go one direction you should be able to go back. @objc enum City: String { case NewYork = "New York" } Make this available as a global string in objective -c ?

Something like this: enum City: String { case NewYork = "New York" } This can be ported over to Objective-c like this: typedef NSString * City; static City const City_NewYork = @"New York"; _______________________________________________ swift-evolution mailing list swift-evolution@swift.org https://lists.swift.org/mailman/listinfo/swift-evolution
