How do you override layerClass in swift

Question

In Objective-C we use to do it like this

+ (Class)layerClass
{
    return [CAEAGLLayer class];
}

Obviously this won\'t work:

CA         


        

Answer 1

Adapted from Apple's ListerKit sample code:

override class func layerClass() -> AnyClass {
    return CAEAGLLayer.self
}

Update for Swift 3:

override class var layerClass: AnyClass {
    get {
        return CAGradientLayer.self
    }
}
