Chapter 16. Swifts Core Libraries
I was really excited when Apple announced that they were going to release a version of Swift for Linux, so I could use Swift for my Linux and embedded development as well as my Mac OS and iOS development. When Apple first released Swift 2.2 for Linux, I was very excited but I was also a little disappointed because I could not read/write files, access network services, or use libdispatch (GCD) on Linux like I could on Apple's platforms. With the release of Swift 3, Apple has corrected this with the release of Swift's core libraries.
In this chapter, you will learn about the following topics:
- What are the Swift Core Libraries?
- How to use Apple's URL loading system?
- How to use the Formatter classes?
- How to use the FileManager ...
