MyTypeMock does not conform to protocol NSObjectProtocol

[fereshteh-zargaran]

Hi,

In my project, there are supporting source files related to NSObjectProtocol. but the error "MyTypeDelegateMock does not conform to protocol NSObjectProtocol" is not resolved.

protocol DTPhotoViewerControllerDelegate: NSObjectProtocol {
}
protocol MyTypeDelegate: DTPhotoViewerControllerDelegate {
}

In MyProjectMocks.generated.swift file, i have this error:

// MARK: - Mocked MyTypeDelegate

public final class MyTypeDelegateMock: MyProject.MyTypeDelegate, Mockingbird.Mock {
}

Hi, thanks for reporting. Is DTPhotoViewerControllerDelegate an externally defined type (e.g. from a third-party library or framework)?

[fereshteh-zargaran]

Thanks for your response :)
Yes. It is an external library.

Try adding a supporting source file for DTPhotoViewerControllerDelegate e.g. create a file at MockingbirdSupport/DTPhotoViewer/DTPhotoViewerControllerDelegate.swift with the contents:

import Foundation

protocol DTPhotoViewerControllerDelegate: NSObjectProtocol {}

I created a file as the same as you mentioned but in the path:
MockingbirdSupport/Foundation/DTPhotoViewerControllerDelegate.swift
But this error is not fixed.

I will try to change the path.
Thanks.

import Foundation

protocol DTPhotoViewerControllerDelegate: NSObjectProtocol {}

Unfortunately, it didn't work :(
Do you have any other suggestions?

[andrewchang-bird]

Oh, looks like the issue might be that the access level wasn’t public. (Also make sure that you’re importing Foundation in supporting source file or the linker won’t work.)

import Foundation

public protocol DTPhotoViewerControllerDelegate: NSObjectProtocol {}

Edit: I’m fairly confident that the above should work, but if it doesn’t, please post the verbose output from the generator build logs: https://github.com/birdrides/mockingbird/wiki/Debugging-the-Generator

I have done all steps but it does not work :(
I attached required files.

Thanks for the logs! Since the module name for that library is actually DTPhotoViewerController, the supporting source file should be under MockingbirdSupport/DTPhotoViewerController instead. Sorry for the confusion here—let me know if this solves the issue for you.

[fereshteh-zargaran]

It is fixed :)
Thanks a lot.

Awesome! Closing this issue.
