Adding a closure as target to a UIButton

button.swift

import UIKit

extension UIButton {


    private func actionHandleBlock(action:(() -> Void)? = nil) {
        struct __ {
            static var action :(() -> Void)?
        }
        if action != nil {
            __.action = action
        } else {
            __.action?()
        }
    }

    @objc private func triggerActionHandleBlock() {
        self.actionHandleBlock()
    }

    func actionHandle(controlEvents control :UIControlEvents, ForAction action:() -> Void) {
        self.actionHandleBlock(action)
        self.addTarget(self, action: "triggerActionHandleBlock", forControlEvents: control)
    }

call button.swift

let button = UIButton()
 button.actionHandle(controlEvents: UIControlEvents.TouchUpInside, 
 ForAction:{() -> Void in
     print("Touch")
 })

Can you please explain this function

private func actionHandleBlock(action:(() -> Void)? = nil) {
        struct __ {
            static var action :(() -> Void)?
        }
        if action != nil {
            __.action = action
        } else {
            __.action?()
        }
}
