</div><div><br></div><div>Swfit encourage to override the property observer. But when we change the own property in Child class's `didSet` observer,
that would cause infinite loop:

<br>
It sounds convenient to monitor change in property's value using property observer.<br>
But TSPL(The Swift Programming Language) talk little about property observer. There<br>
are some questions abouts property observer.<br>
<br>
1) when `didSet` observer will call?<br>
<br>
I assume it's fine that changing property's value in `didSet` observer.<br>
<br>
class Foo {<br>
var a: Int = 0 {<br>
didSet {<br>
print("didset")<br>
a = a + 1<br>
}<br>
}<br>
}<br>
<br>
let foo = Foo()<br>
foo.a = 4 // only output "didset" once<br>
<br>
Why it don't cause infinite loop?<br>
<br>
2) infinite loop<br>
<br>
// this code snippet cause inifinite loop<br>
class Foo {<br>
var a: Int = 0 {<br>
didSet {<br>
b = a + 1<br>
}<br>
}<br>
<br>
var b: Int = 1 {<br>
didSet {<br>
a = b - 1<br>
}<br>
}<br>
}<br>
<br>
let foo = Foo()<br>
foo.a = 2<br>
<br>
3) override property observer<br>
<br>
class Base {<br>
var a: Int = 0 {<br>
didSet {<br>
print("base didset")<br>
}<br>
}<br>
}<br>
<br>
class Child : Base {<br>
override var a : Int {<br>
didSet {<br>
print("child didset")<br>
}<br>
}<br>
}<br>
<br>
let child = Child()<br>
child.a = 2 // output "base didset" and "child didset"<br>
let base = child as Base<br>
base.a = 4 // still output "base didset" and "child didset"<br>
<br>
Why overriding property observer still call parent's `didSet` observer?<br>
<br>
