How do you call an Objective-C variadic method from Swift?

by

Write a va_list version of your variadic method;

+ (NSError *)executeUpdateQuery:(NSString *)query, ...
{
    va_list argp;
    va_start(argp, query);
    NSError *error = [MyClassName executeUpdateQuery: query args:argp];
    va_end(argp);
    
    return error;
}

+ (NSError *)executeUpdateQuery:(NSString *)query args:(va_list)args
{
    NSLogv(query,args);
    return nil;
}

This can then be called from Swift

MyClassName.executeUpdateQuery("query %d, %d %d", args: getVaList([1,2,3,4]))

Add an extension to support native Swift variadic args:

protocol CFormatFunction {
    class func executeUpdateQuery(_ format: String, _ args: CVarArg...) -> NSError?
}

extension MyClassName : CFormatFunction {
    class func executeUpdateQuery(_ format: String, _ args: CVarArg...) -> NSError?
    {
        return withVaList(args) { MyClassName.executeUpdateQuery(format, args: $0) }
    }
}

MyClassName.executeUpdateQuery("query %d %@ %.2f", 99, "Hello", 3.145)

Be careful, Swift doesn’t provide NS_FORMAT_FUNCTION warnings (-Wformat)

MyClassName.executeUpdateQuery("query %@", 99)
