Overriding delegate property of UIScrollView in Swift (like UICollectionView does)

I think overriding an inherited property is something that’s possible in Objective-C but not (at least currently) in Swift. The way I’ve handled this is to declare a separate delegate as a computed property of the correct type that gets and sets the actual delegate:

@objc protocol MyScrollViewDelegate : UIScrollViewDelegate, NSObjectProtocol {
    func myHeight() -> CGFloat
    // ...
}

class MyScrollView: UIScrollView {
    var myDelegate: MyScrollViewDelegate? {
        get { return self.delegate as? MyScrollViewDelegate }
        set { self.delegate = newValue }
    }
}

This way anything that calls the scroll view delegate normally still works, and you can call your particular delegate methods on self.myDelegate, like this:

if let height = self.myDelegate?.myHeight() {
    // ...
}
