How to Import C++ vector data to Swift












0














I have a C++ function that gets called by Swift that I need to return a vector of UIIMage's std::vector<UIImage *>. The only problem is I don't know how to retrieve the value of the vector.



C++ file 1:



//  OpenCVWrapper.h

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

@interface OpenCVWrapper : NSObject

+(???) convert:(UIImage *) image;

@end


file 2:



//  OpenCVWrapper.mm
#import "OpenCVWrapper.h"
#import <opencv2/opencv.hpp>
#import <opencv2/imgcodecs/ios.h>

class Converter {
public:
UIImage *image;
std::vector<UIImage *> main() {

// run code

return finalImage;
};

};

@implementation OpenCVWrapper

+(std::vector<UIImage *>) convert:(UIImage *)image {
Converter converter;
converter.image = image;
std::vector<UIImage *>newImage = converter.main();

return newImage;

}

@end


Swift:



var multipleImages = OpenCVWrapper.convert(originalImage) //want array


I'm aware Swift doesn't import c++ data structures, I'm looking to extract the values from the vector.



Thanks in advance.

    std::vector::dataalong with another parameter for the length usually works.

You can't use std::vector from Swift, so don't return a std::vector.



Since your vector contains instances of UIImage, simply return a NSArray:



+ ( NSArray< UIImage * > * )convert: ( UIImage * )image
{
Converter converter;
converter.image = image;

NSMutableArray * images = [ NSMutableArray new ];

for( auto i: converter.main() )
{
[ images addObject: i ];
}

return images;
}
