Generics variable declaration in Swift -


i have created simple code in playground.

class carbrand {  }  class bmw: carbrand {  }  class mercedes: carbrand {  }  class car<t: carbrand> {  }  class employee {     var car: car<t: carbrand>?// of cource      doesn't work, idea there might car type }  let employeeone = employee() employeeone.car = car<bmw>()  let employeetwo = employee() employeetwo.car = car<mercedes>() 

the simple question is: how declare variable generics when type not known @ compile time? seems swift requires have type defined , known makes generics useless in scenario.

this weird, class car should holds stored property "brand" of type carbrand rather using generic form. example:

class car {   let brand: carbrand    init(brand: carbrand) {     self.brand = brand   } }  class employee {   var car: car    init(car: car) {     self.car = car   } }  let employeeone = employee(car: car(brand: bmw())) let employeetwo = employee(car: car(brand: mercedes())) 

btw, might better define carbrand protocol.
