I have solved this by creating a generic main class which is accessible to all views. Create an empty swift file, name it ‘global.swift’ and include it in your project:
global.swift:
class Main {
var name:String
init(name:String) {
self.name = name
}
}
var mainInstance = Main(name:"My Global Class")
You can now access this mainInstance from all your view controllers and the name will always be “My Global Class”. Example from a viewController:
viewController:
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
println("global class is " + mainInstance.name)
}
