How to use imp_implementationWithBlock in Swift

implementationWithBlock.swift

import Foundation
import ObjectiveC.runtime

let myString = "foobar" as NSString

println(myString.description)

let myBlock : @objc_block (AnyObject!) -> String = { (sself : AnyObject!) -> (String) in
    "✋"
}

let myIMP = imp_implementationWithBlock(unsafeBitCast(myBlock, AnyObject.self))
let method = class_getInstanceMethod(myString.dynamicType, "description")
method_setImplementation(method, myIMP)

println(myString.description)

@cprovatas Use @convention(block) instead of @objc_block
