Overriding a stored property in Swift

Question

I noticed that the compiler won\'t let me override a stored property with another stored value (which seems odd):

class Jedi {
    var lightSaberColor = \"Bl         


        

Answer 1

In Swift, this is unfortunately not possible to do. The best alternative is the following:

class Jedi {
    private(set) var lightsaberColor = "Blue"
}


class Sith: Jedi {
    override var lightsaberColor : String {
        get {
            return "Red"
        }
    }
}
