ObjectiveDropboxOfficial & SwiftyDropbox in same application

[jem5519]

I have a third-party objc package that uses ObjectiveDropboxOfficial. I need to add some swift code that interacts with that package. The swift code would need to interact with the same dropbox manager that the objc (through ObjectiveDropboxOfficial) is using. Can I install both ObjectiveDropboxOfficial & SwiftyDropbox in the same project using cocoapods and have my swift code interact with the same underlying dropbox connection that ObjectiveDropboxOfficial is using. Say - set up the connection with the SwiftyDropbox and have the ObjectiveDropboxOfficial library see and use the same dropbox connection?

The SwiftyDropbox and ObjectiveDropboxOfficial SDKs aren't really meant to be used together. If you already have ObjectiveDropboxOfficial though, you can access and use that directly in Swift using a bridging header, containing the Objective-C import:

#import <ObjectiveDropboxOfficial/ObjectiveDropboxOfficial.h>

Then you can access DBClientsManager, DBUserClient, etc, from Swift.

Thanks for your reply. I am currently doing just that. The reason for the question is that I find working with the swiftydropbox library much more logical and enjoyable than making the swift version of the calls for the ObjectiveDropboxOfficial library. All of my addon dev for this library is all in Swift 😉
