[Returned for revision] SE-0258: Property Delegates

The review for SE-0258 has concluded. There was a lot of great discussion in this review, leading to some very useful feedback for the Core Team and the proposal authors. That feedback can be broken down into two categories: (1) procedural feedback about the state of the proposal and its review and (2) technical feedback about the actual proposal. Both are useful, and we'll consider each in turn.

Contributor Raj Barik implemented an entire optimizer pass to convert existentials to generic parameters, creating new opportunities for unboxing and devirtualization. All the pieces have landed and it is now on by default: https://github.com/apple/swift/pull/19820

I jest, but there's a serious point here: declaring your API binary stable is a major step, and even now you can, not be done without good reason.

What's cool about this evolution feature is it will let you do it gradually, by reserving a lot of flexibility for later changes. https://twitter.com/AirspeedSwift/status/1125843585801154560

Case study on applying SE-0255: "Omitting Single-Expression Returns" to String's internal implementation in the standard library.

Includes 393 removed returns, and analyzes 111 declarations where the return couldn't be removed.

[Pitch] Property delegate composability, backing storage, and $

https://forums.swift.org/t/pitch-property-delegate-composability-backing-storage-and/24291

Based on the discussions in the property delegates pitch and review, it seems that we should push further on the composition angle. So, I had an idea that could use some refinement.

Omitting Returns in String: Case Study of SE-0255

I’m a fan of @nate_chandler’s SE-0255 which allows us to omit the return keyword in a single-expression function or computed variables. Here is a case study of SE-0255 as applied to String’s internal implementation.

This is only to String and related Unicode functionality; other areas such as SIMDVector.swift (@scanon) could similarly benefit.

Omission Wins

SE-0255 allows us to remove 393 single-expression returns. Here is the PR 8. Below are a few common themes in return omission.

Super excited to see Swift on WebAssembly finally working, albeit in some limited form, any further contributions are appreciated! But I'm unfairly credited here, most of the hard work was done by @zhuowei 👏https://twitter.com/johannesweiss/status/1126913408455053312

Feedback: NIOAPNS: NIO-based Apple Push Notification Service

After the discussion thread, we are proposing this as a final revision of this proposal and enter the proposal review phase which will run until the 31st of May 2019.

We have integrated most of the feedback from the discussion thread so even if you have read the previous version, you will find some changes that you hopefully agree with.
