I am writing a program that involves core data. I created a class variable for my context and entity and have my code written like this:
class PersistencyManager {
var context : NSManagedObjectContext{
let appDelegate = UIApplication.sharedApplication().delegate as! AppDelegate
let localContext = appDelegate.managedObjectContext
return localContext
}
var userEntity : NSEntityDescription {
let entity = NSEntityDescription.entityForName(EntityNames.User, inManagedObjectContext: context)
return entity!
}
struct EntityNames {
private static let User = "User"
private static let Category = "Category"
}
}
Everything so far works fine, But what I want to do is to "lazy"ly load userEntity
Like this :
lazy var userEntity : NSEntityDescription = {
let entity = NSEntityDescription.entityForName(EntityNames.User, inManagedObjectContext: context)
return entity!
}()
But when I do, I get an error: "Instance member 'context' cannot be used on type 'Persistency Manager' "
What am I doing wrong? How can I achieve my goal?
Thank you!
