Should extension methods have prefix, like ezs_? about ezswiftextensions

[Esqarrouth]

Hello, I am also using this repo in several of my apps in production using Swifts latest version, there were no clashes?

Apple added some of the methods included here over the time, but we removed them. Which version of Swift and EZSwiftExtensions are you using? Which Apple or other peoples frameworks are you using? Did you install manually or as a framework from cocoapods?

Name prefixes sounds like a good idea to fix this problem, but I've never heard anyone experience this the problem is more likely to be extensions in this repo clashing with extensions in another open source repo

Are you using Objective-C ?

I think it would be better to include a prefix for Objective-C like @objc(ezs_)

@goktugyil we use Swift 2 on ObjC+Swift project with many cocoapods. Latest release of cocoapods '0.39'. All targets use_frameworks!
We installed EZSwiftExtensions as a cocoapod.
Here is our list of Apple frameworks:

MobileCoreServices.framework
Foundation.framework
UIKit.framework
CoreGraphics.framework
SystemConfiguration.framework

Unfortunately we did not had time to debug the problem and had to remove EZSwiftExtensions since we just started using it. Our application lost some colors when we had EZSwiftExtensions and we do use UIAppearance, if that matters.

Thank you again for very useful cocoapod!

I tried adding those frameworks, tried using objective-c. Still couldn't find a problem, can you give me the list in your podfile? Maybe an external framework with s public extension is clashing

I couldn't get these to compile, which may be a lot of reasons like target version, objc stuff, or this repo. #pod 'ASRestKit'
#pod 'BFGCallbackRouter'
#pod 'GRK-Mixpanel-OSX'
#pod 'ComponentKit+SDWebImage'
#pod 'AVReachability'

The rest works fine
