Accessing optional nested struct value

[silentninja]

I am trying to access a nested struct value using dot notation.
Something like this

// Model
class NestedModel {
var name: String?;
}
class Model {
var nestedModel: NestedModel?;
}
// layout.xml
    <UILabel
        width="100%"
        textColor="titleColor"
        text="{nestedModel.name}"
    />

The error says it is an unknown property.

 Unknown property name in nestedModel in nestedModel.name expression in text expression in UILabel in UIView

Is there any way to unwrap the optional value in the template

This looks like an oversight in Layout’s type system. I don’t think there’s a workaround other than making the value non-optional - I’ll try to fix it for the next release.

@silentninja this is now fixed on the develop branch.
