Description

Lets Say I have a Swift class A I want to have tab bar like the one in your Youtube Example.

So I would be declaring it like

@objc class A: BaseButtonBarPagerTabStripViewController<MyCustomTabCell>

The reason I used @objc is because I will use my class in Objective C code. This will give a compile time error because Classes with Swift generics can not be used in Objective C.

please see this thread

Can you please tell me a workaround

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate using a non generic wrapper class or protocol to expose the pager tab strip to Objective C, as Swift generics cannot be bridged to Objective C. Consider type erasure or a base class without generics.
