How to create a custom getter method in Swift?

Question

I am trying to create a custom setter method for my property using the code below:

var myProperty: String {
    get {
        if CONDITION1 {
            return CONDITION1_STRING
        } else if CONDITION2 {
            return CONDITION2_STRING
        } else{
            return myProperty
        }
    }
    set {
        
    }
}

But this gives the warning:

Attempting to access 'myProperty' within its own getter

Answer 1

Create a backing ivar and add a custom setter:

private var _myProperty: String 
var myProperty: String {
    get {
        if CONDITION1 {
            return CONDITION1_STRING
        } else if CONDITION2 {
            return CONDITION2_STRING
        } else {
            return _myProperty
        }
    }
    set {
        _myProperty = newValue
    }
}
