cs193p – Smashtag Update Swift 1.2

Please note, this blog entry is from a previous course. You might want to check out the current one.

To run the Smashtag code with Swift 1.2. are quite extensive:

• countElements() is now called count()
• as needs to be replaced with as!
• reduce() requires the combine parameter named explicitly
• same with custom methods, its now quite strict …
• let is now more restrictive, some parameters have to be changed to var (it might be I went a little bit over board here)
• NSString is no String any more and needs to be cast explicitly
• if a parameter is set within a closure of the init method, set a default value outside

The updated code is available on GitHub.
