Migrate to Swift
If you have implemented Objective-C versions (ACP-prefixed SDK libraries, 2.x or lower), then this guide will help you understand the steps required to migrate your implementation to the latest Swift versions (AEP-prefixed SDK libraries, 3.x or higher). In summary, you'll need to:
Switch imported libraries
At this time, the following ACP-prefix libraries may be switched out with their respective AEP-prefix SDK libraries. See instructions on proceeding further if you have manually imported SDK libraries or have used Cocoapods to manage SDK dependencies
In addition to
ACPCore being replaced with AEPCore, you will also need to explicitly import AEPLifecycle, AEPIdentity, and AEPSignal libraries to ensure there is no disruption in SDK behavior.Objective-C (ACP-prefix)

Manual library import
If you are manually importing SDK libraries, ensure you identify all currently used ACP-prefix libraries and switch them over to AEP-prefix libraries. The list of current AEP-prefix SDK libraries can be found in the current SDK versions document (in the Swift section).
Cocoapods
If you are using Cocoapods to manage your Adobe Experience Platform Mobile SDK dependencies, the following example shows you how to switch ACP-prefix libraries to AEP-prefix libraries in your
Podfile.1
# replace ACPCore with AEPCore/AEPLifecycle/AEPIdentity/AEPSignal
2
# pod 'ACPCore'
3
pod 'AEPCore'
4
pod 'AEPLifecycle'
5
pod 'AEPIdentity'
6
pod 'AEPSignal'
7
8
# replace ACPUserProfile with AEPUserProfile
9
# pod 'ACPUserProfile'
10
pod 'AEPUserProfile'
Copied!
Save the
Podfile and run pod repo update to update your local Cocoapods repository.Once the previous command is complete, run
pod install or pod update to update the application dependencies.Update SDK initialization
After you have imported the new Swift-based AEP-prefix libraries, you'll need to update SDK initialization code as described below. With Swift, the
MobileCore.start() API is no longer required. The SDK has simplified initialization and registration of extensions by providing the MobileCore.registerExtensions() API. After the given extensions have been registered, the SDK will be initialized and the completion block will be executed. Code which used to reside in the start() block will now reside in the MobileCore.registerExtensions() completion block.The following code snippets show the new and correct initialization code required for the Swift-based, AEP-prefix SDK libraries.

Update API usage and references for each extension
Finally, you'll need to scan through your current implementation and replace ACP-prefix API calls to the new Swift-based, AEP-prefix libraries. A quick find and replace should do the trick. Detailed API changes by extension may be found at the links below.
