Consider:

struct TestStruct {
    let a = 3
    static let b = 4
}
let t = TestStruct()
let m = Mirror(reflecting: t)
for c in m.children {
    let label = c.label
    let value = c.value
}

The playground correctly shows "a" and "3".

But what about b?

How can I access the "type members" as opposed to the instance members?

Reflection is still half-baked, or less. Presumably this would be

let m = Mirror(reflecting: TestStruct.self)

but that doesn't currently give you a useful mirror.
