Alternative to Constants.h in swift

Question

With Objective C, I used 'FileName.h' header file to declare all constants values with #default and it can be accessed from any other classes by importing the constants.h file.

In Swift: What is the alternate to that in swift?

@DánielNagy. If i create a struct for that, is it possible to access from other classes? — SARANGA, Mar 03 '16 at 11:43

Make a Constants.swift file. Following file will help you. eg.:

class Constants: NSObject 
{
    static let msg = ""
    static let text = ""
}

Ah, same answer in the same second. :-) You just use them like this: `Constant.msg` or similar. – Flovdis Mar 03 '16 at 11:44
Hi @Flovdis, & Bhagyalaxmi... Working.... Without static keyword it was not working. Thanks! – SARANGA Mar 03 '16 at 11:47
Which one need to be mark as an answer? – SARANGA Mar 03 '16 at 11:49
@BhagyalaxmiPoojary You should remove the `NSObject` superclass. It is not needed and generates unnecessary overhead. – Flovdis Apr 22 '16 at 12:48
@Flovdis, Thanks for the suggestion :) I will surely try it. – Bhagyalaxmi Poojary May 04 '16 at 12:31

Just create a class somewhere which only has static variables.

class Constant {
    static let a = "demo1"
    static let b = "demo2"
}
