I'm facing a NSInvalidArgumentException
exception after upgrading a project to Swift 4.2 (conversion from 4.0).

It's something related with a NSMutableAttributedString
and the code is adding some attributes, for example, a NSAttributedString.Key.underlineStyle
.
The exception happens when the attributed string is about to be assigned: textView.attributedText = mutableAttributedString
.
The code was working in Swift 4:
mutableAttributedString.addAttribute(NSAttributedString.Key.underlineStyle, value: NSUnderlineStyle.styleNone.rawValue, range: range)
But with Swift 4.2, the compiler suggests changing the NSUnderlineStyle.styleNone.rawValue
to NSUnderlineStyle.none.rawValue
After accepting the change, the compiler started complaining about "'none' is unavailable: use [] to construct an empty option set":
mutableAttributedString.addAttribute(NSAttributedString.Key.underlineStyle, value: NSUnderlineStyle.none.rawValue, range: range)
^~~~~ 'none' is unavailable: use [] to construct an empty option set
I just found out what was wrong in the code.
So, because of the compiler error "'none' is unavailable: use [] to construct an empty option set", I replaced the NSUnderlineStyle.none.rawValue
with []
🤦‍♂️ And that's not the right case because it was using the rawValue
, not the type none
.
So, the fix is using 0
.
Wrong: mutableAttributedString.addAttribute(NSAttributedString.Key.underlineStyle, value: [], range: range)
Right: mutableAttributedString.addAttribute(NSAttributedString.Key.underlineStyle, value: 0, range: range)
