Difference between frame.size.width and frame.width

cgrect, cgsize, ios, swift, xcode6

Solution

I just looked into the `CGRect` structure reference. In Swift there is an extension defined which have members `height` and `width`. Please have a look at the code below

struct CGRect {
var origin: CGPoint
var size: CGSize
}

extension CGRect {
    ...
    var width: CGFloat { get }
    var height: CGFloat { get }
    ...
}

So that you can directly fetch `height` and `width` values from a `CGRect`. As you can see these are only `getters`, so you will get an error if you try to set these values using `view.frame.height = someValue`

Problem

I was writing a program in swift and just now I noticed that I can directly access a `CGRect` frame's width and height properties directly without using the `CGSize` width and height. That is I am now able to write a code like this. ``` @IBOutlet var myView: UIView! override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() var height = myView.frame.height var height1 = myView.frame.size.height } ``` In Objective C, when I tried to write the same code, the line `height = view.frame.height` is throwing an error. Can anyone please tell me the difference(if any) in these two lines of code.
