Convert your own struct/enum to AnyObject easily.



## Sumally 



 We can cast everything as AnyObject at Swift3.0 🎉  


 So, we would not need this library no longer 



In swift, struct or enum cannot convert to AnyObject

```swift

NSNotificationCenter.defaultCenter().postNotificationName("foo", object: YourOwnStruct()) // Fail

```

Of course, you may wrap value using Box\.

```swift

class Box {

  let value: T

  init(value: T) {

    self.value = value

  }

}

NSNotificationCenter.defaultCenter().postNotificationName("foo", object: Box(value: YourOwnStruct())) // OK

```



But Box\ unwrap is too lazy.

```swift

let value = (notification.object as? Box)?.value

```



You can cast your struct/enum directory if implement AnyObjectConvertible at that type.

```swift

extension YourOwnStruct: AnyObjectConvertible {}



NSNotificationCenter.defaultCenter().postNotificationName("foo", object: YourOwnStruct()) // OK

let value = notification.object as? YourOwnStruct

```



## Installation

#### CocoaPods

You can use [CocoaPods](http://cocoapods.org/) to install `AnyObjectConvertible` by adding it to your `Podfile`:



```ruby

platform :ios, '8.0'

use_frameworks!

pod 'AnyObjectConvertible'

```



To get the full benefits import `AnyObjectConvertible` wherever you import UIKit



``` swift

import UIKit

import AnyObjectConvertible

```

#### Carthage

Create a `Cartfile` that lists the framework and run `carthage bootstrap`. Follow the [instructions](https://github.com/Carthage/Carthage#if-youre-building-for-ios) to add `$(SRCROOT)/Carthage/Build/iOS/YourLibrary.framework` to an iOS project.



```

github "tarunon/AnyObjectConvertible"

```

#### Manually

1. Download and drop ```AnyObjectConvertible.swift``` in your project.  

2. Congratulations!
