The naming of 'Element' from SWXMLHash.XMLIndexer causes a build failure in Xcode 9

[jacquelinelee]

I found a related issue on the apple swift bugs site: https://bugs.swift.org/browse/SR-4951

When I attempt to build with SWXMLHash on Xcode 9, I encounter the following error:
SWXMLHash.XMLIndexer:72:22: error: invalid redeclaration of 'Element'
public typealias Element = (SWXMLHash.XMLIndexer)

I can rename 'Element' (at line 457 of SWXMLHash.swift) to 'element' using Xcode9's new rename feature and my build works.

Have you checked out the latest version 4.0.0? Via #133? That should have introduced the rename from Element to element along with other enum renames which should have resolved this.

Thanks @drmohundro – using 4.0.0 resolved the problem for me

The code compiles now, but the implementation of the Sequence Protocol was dropped from XMLIndexer, which is causing issues in our code?

[drmohundro]

Is your current usage for val in xml["elem"]?

If so, just add .all at the end - it does the same as the prior approach did.

[codeslubber]

Yah we figured it out, thanks.

Closing this as I think this should be resolved.
