title: Access Instance variable on Native UI Component from React Native
body: <p>I have a Native UI Component in <code>Swift</code> and I need to be able to access the value of one of its <code>variable</code> from React Native side.</p>
  
  <p>For Example, my <code>Swift</code> component contains the following <code>var</code>:</p>
  
  <pre><code>open class AnyNativeClass: UIView {
     open var clippingStartTime = 5.46
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The value of <code>clippingStartTime</code> can change. I need to be able to know the value of <code>clippingStartTime</code> from JS. I don't need to know when it changed, I just need to be able to retrieve the value when I need to.</p>
