Class

A dot-delimited (.) path used to qualify the class name within the module scope of the declaration, or nil if the class isn’t nested (that is, declared at the top-level scope of a module).

For example, given the following declaration of a class C, the context is "A.B":

class A { class B { class C {} }

The declaration attributes.

The declaration modifiers.

The declaration keyword ("class").

The class name.

A list of inherited type names.

If the class is a subclass, the first element is the superclass. Any other elements are names of protocols.

For example, given the following declarations, the inheritance of class C is ["B", "P"]:

protocol P {}
class A {}
class B: A {}
class C: B, P {}

The generic parameters for the declaration.

For example, the following declaration of class C has a single generic parameter whose name is "T" and type is "Equatable":

class C<T: Equatable> {}

The generic parameter requirements for the declaration.

For example, the following declaration of class C has a single requirement that its generic parameter identified as "T" conforms to the type identified as "Hahable":

class C<T> where T: Hashable {}
