crash occurs if the base class is NSObject

[thekan23]

class User: NSObject {
    let id: Int = 0
    let username: String = ""
    let email: String = ""
}

let info = try typeInfo(of: User.self) // crash occurs 
let property = try info.property(named: "username")
print("name: \(property.name)")
print("type: \(property.type)")

how fix this problem? and is there any plan to support objective-c language?

Reproduced, thanks! When it was searching through the super classes it wasnt stopping at NSObject.

#26 should fix it. Would you mind giving the fix-nsobject-base branch a try?

Thank you, i confirmed that it works well.
but real my problem is not fixed yet.

my real problem is below

import Realm
import RealmSwift

class RealmUser: Object {
    @objc dynamic var id: Int = 0
    @objc dynamic var username: String = ""
    @objc dynamic var email: String = ""
}

let realmInfo = try typeInfo(of: RealmUser.self)
let realmProperty = try realmInfo.property(named: "username")
print("name: \(realmProperty.name)")
print("type: \(realmProperty.type)")

Object -> RLMObjectBase -> NSObject

can this problem be solved? i hope to be..
thank you!!

hmmmm im not to sure. Id have to set up a realm project. However I wouldn't use this project with Realm. Setting a property via reflection with this lib wont actually trigger realm to actually save it. Out of curiosity whats the use case?

After read your comment, It seems to useless..

but if runtime library applied to unsupported type, I think it would be better to print error message instead of crash.

and that use case just simple class inheritance.. sorry (T_T)
thank you for your kindness.
