Initializing Swift properties that require “self” as an argument

Question

I have a Swift class that I\'d like to look something like this:

class UpdateManager {
  let timer: NSTimer

  init() {
    timer = NSTimer(timeInterval: 600         


        

Answer 1

It's possible that Swift 2 has changed what works. I'm using code like the following:

@objc class Test : NSObject {
    var timer : NSTimer!
    init text() {
        super.init()
        timer = NSTimer(timeInterval: 1.0, target: self, selector: "timerFired:", userInfo: nil, repeats: true)
        NSRunLoop.mainRunLoop().addTimer(timer, forMode: NSRunLoopCommonModes)
    }
}

Needed both @objc declaration and NSObject subclass. Also timer needs to be a var, not let.
