Use of undeclared type 'Task'

[oliverfoggin]

I have used Bolts with Objective-C before but when I installed this (through Cocoapods) I can't seem to use them.

I'm trying to create a Task of my own but when I use the code from the README...

func doSomethingAsync() -> Task<PFObject> {
}

I just get the error "Use of undeclared type 'Task'"

I don't think the README is correct as PFObject is not found in the entire project.

I can't seem to find an import that works.

Am I doing something wrong?

Hey @oliverfoggin, lets figure this out together!

• I assume you added import BoltsSwift or @import BoltsSwift to the source file you are trying to use this from.
• If there would be a chance you could publish a project that can reproduce an issue, or maybe a source file + pod file that you are trying to use BoltsSwift from - that would be also very helpful.

The PFObject example is something we used as a good example of the asynchronous API, that is currently being used and available in Parse ObjC SDK. I would gladly accept/review the PR that changes all of these to use Cocoa / Cocoa Touch set of frameworks and can showcase the API functionality.

Hi Nikita,

I couldn't find an import statement that was accepted and I had no auto completions for anything with Bolts or Swift in it. I'm away from my computer now but will try that as soon as I'm back.

I'll provide a project too if I can't get it working.

Thanks

Oliver

Perfect! Thanks for looking into this!

And you are right, it could be quite troublesome to find the proper import statement.
Am going to send a README patch that fixes it, so it's straightforward.

Ah, excellent!

I had tried literally everything but BoltsSwift as an import.

With that it now all works.

Thanks for the help
