Objective-C Class Properties
Xcode 8 ships with a new versions of Clang and LLVM (800.0.2.24.1, and 8.0.0 as of the first beta). The new version of Clang adds support for class properties in Objective-C. The feature is not yet fully documented anywhere that I can find, so I did a little experimenting.
