Swift: how to change a property's value without calling its didSet function

Question

How can you set a property\'s value in Swift, without calling its didSet() function outside of an initialization context? The code below was a failed experimen

Answer 1

If you exactly know when you want to apply side effects just make it explicitly:

1 Solution:

func noside(newValue : Int) {
    hoodwink = newValue
}

func withside(newValue : Int) {
    self.hoodwink = newValue
    toggle = !toggle
}

2 Solution:

var toggle : Bool = false
var hoodwink : Int = 0 
var hoodwinkToggle: Int {
    get { return hoodwink }
    set(newValue) {
        hoodwink = newValue
        toggle = !toggle
    }
}

3. func setHoodwinkWithToggle(hoodwink: Int) {...}
4. ....

I think these solutions will be more clear and readable, then using one variable which at some calls should have side effects and shouldn't at others.
