Access static variables within class in Swift

Question

Is ClassName.staticVaribale the only way to access static variable within the class? I want something like self, but for class. Like class.st

Answer 1

It looks like in Swift 4.2 the inner class and instance variable can directly access the static variable without the prefix of the class name. However, you still need the class name within a function.

class MyClass {
    static let staticProperty = 0
    let property = staticProperty //YES

    class Inner {
        func method() {
            print(staticProperty) //YES
        }
    }

    func method() {
        print(staticProperty) //NO
        print(MyClass.staticProperty) //YES
    }
}
