For convenience in naming constants I would like to do the following in Swift (my real case is less trivial) so I could refer to IntegerConstants.SIX in later code. However, SIX cannot be given a value because ONE and TWO do not have values till the struct has been initialized .. bit of a "Catch-22"
struct IntegerConstants {
let ONE = 1.0
let TWO = 2.0
let SIX = (ONE + TWO) * TWO
}
Is there a way to do this, or an equivalent that creates a named constant of the form "GROUP.VALUE", that I have not yet discovered?
If you're using this to group constants, as with IntegerConstants.six, what you actually want to do is make them static. This also solves your error since you don't need to access a self.
struct IntegerConstants {
static let one = 1
static let two = 2
static let six = (one + two) * two
}
