Declare static member variables like Java's in Objective-C
class, java, objective-c, static
Solution
It looks like you want to create constants (since you are using `final` in your question). In Objective-C, you can use `extern` for that.
Do something like this:
1) Create a new Objective-C class named Constants.
2) In the header (.h) file:
extern const NSString *SERVICE_URL;
3) In the implementation (.m) file:
NSString *SERVICE_URL = @"http://something/services";
4) Add `#import "Constants.h"` to any class where you want to use it
5) Access directly as `NSString *url = SERVICE_URL;`
If you don't want to create constants and simply want to use `static` in Objective-C, unfortunately you can only use `static` in the implementation (.m) file. And they can be accessed directly without prefixing the Class Name.
For example:
static NSString *url = @"something";
I hope this helps.
Problem
How can I make an Objective-C class with class-level variables like this Java class? ``` public class test { public static final String tableName = "asdfas"; public static final String id_Column = "_id"; public static final String Z_ENT_Column = "Z_ENT"; } ``` I want to access them without making an instance, like: ``` String abc = test.tableName; ```
