Swift 可选链是从左到右延迟评估的吗?

Is Swift optional chaining lazily evaluated left-to-right?

文档似乎没有提及任何关于可选链评估顺序的明确内容,只是:

Multiple queries can be chained together, and the entire chain fails gracefully if any link in the chain is nil.

可能看起来很明显,但我需要确认到底发生了什么,并认为这可能对其他人有帮助。例如我们能安全地做这种事吗?

    opVar?.someObject.someMethod(opVar!)

可选链按照您的预期从左到右延迟求值。链中第一个失败的可选停止对该链的任何进一步评估。

// Playground test for left-to-right lazy evaluation.
struct C {
    static var i = 0
    func chain(count: Int) -> C? {
        print("Expected \(count) -> \(C.i)")
        assert(count == C.i)
        C.i += 1
        return C.i > 2 ? nil : self
    }
}

let c = C()
c.chain(0)?.chain(1)?.chain(2)?.chain(3)!.chain(4)!

输出

Expected 0 -> 0
Expected 1 -> 1
Expected 2 -> 2
