Cannot access SceneDelegate class variable/property

Question

I'm trying to access a variable declared in the SceneDelegate, however, I can't access it. My code in my viewcontroller is as:

let sceneDelegate = self.view.window.windowScene.delegate
let variableToAccess = sceneDelegate.variableToAccess

I thought that would do it.. not sure what I'm missing? Thanks

Answer 1

The property you are trying to access is of type UISceneDelegate. So to get the value you need to cast the delegate property to SceneDelegate like this:

if let sceneDelegate = self.view.window.windowScene.delegate as? SceneDelegate {
  let variableToAccess = sceneDelegate.variableToAccess
  print(variableToAccess)
}
