I have the following structure :
struct XFile : Codable {
...variables here
init(fileUrl: URL, key: String) {
...
}
Then in another class I am trying the following:
class UploadTask {
var xfile: XFile
var inProgress = false
init(file: URL) {
xFile = XFile(fileUrl: file, key: "filename")
}
}
If typed as above Xcode gives me the following error:
Cannot find 'xFile' in scope
If I remove the xFile= part,
Xcode give me the following warning and error:
Result of 'XFile' initializer is unused
Return from initializer without initializing all stored properties
Obviously I am breaking some rule, just not sure what it is.
The rule you are breaking is that capitalization matters when you spell a name. You're saying
xFile = ...
So the Swift compiler looks for the term xFile declared as a variable name in scope, to which something can be assigned. But the word xFile doesn't appear as a variable name in scope — just as the compiler is telling you.
What does appear as a variable name in scope is xfile, which as far as Swift is concerned is a totally different name.
