Embedding a struct can work just fine as a workaround:
class SomeClass
{
// class var classVariable: Int = 0
// "Class variables not yet supported." Weird.
// Workaround:
private struct SubStruct { static var staticVariable: Int = 0 }
class var workaroundClassVariable: Int
{
get { return SubStruct.staticVariable }
set { SubStruct.staticVariable = newValue }
}
}
The SomeClass.workaroundClassVariable computed type property can then be used as if it were a stored type property.
