In Objective-c how can we have a variable whose scope is the whole class (but doesn't include subclasses)

Question

I created tons of subclasses of UITableViewCell. Each of which is a subclass of an additional BGBaseTableViewCell class.

When asked for height, I think it\'ll be useful

Answer 1

Visible in whole class but not for subclasses? You can try this code for your .m file:

@interface ClassYouNeed ()
static VariableClass* variableVisibleInClassButNotInSubclass;
@end

Just make a "hidden" category on your class near your implementation, it should work.
