Delegate must respond to locationManager:didFailWithError: even though implemented didFailWithError method

3.9k views Asked by At

For some reason Xcode thinks I'm not implementing didFailWithError method of the CLLocationManagerDelegate protocol

enter image description here enter image description here

I fail to see what I'm doing wrong, as I literally copied from another SO post that said this didFailWithErrormethod was updated for Swift 3. So I don't understand why Xcode thinks I'm not implementing didFailWithError

Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

Code

class OptionsViewController: UIViewController,
    CLLocationManagerDelegate {
var locationManager: CLLocationManager = CLLocationManager()

    override func viewDidLoad() {
//Ask user for location
        locationManager.delegate = self
        locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyBest
        
        //Use users current location if no starting point set
        if CLLocationManager.locationServicesEnabled() {
            if CLLocationManager.authorizationStatus() == CLAuthorizationStatus.authorizedWhenInUse
                || CLLocationManager.authorizationStatus() == CLAuthorizationStatus.authorizedAlways {
                locationManager.requestLocation()
            }
            else{
                locationManager.requestWhenInUseAuthorization()
            }
        }
        else{
            //Alert user to open location service, bra bra bra here...
        }
    }

func locationManager(_ manager: CLLocationManager, didFailWithError error: Error) {
        print("error:: \(error)")
    }
    
    func locationManager(_ manager: CLLocationManager, didChangeAuthorization status: CLAuthorizationStatus) {
        print("didChangeAuthorization")
        if status == CLAuthorizationStatus.authorizedWhenInUse
            || status == CLAuthorizationStatus.authorizedAlways {
            locationManager.requestLocation()
        }
        else{
            //other procedures when location service is not permitted.
        }
    }
    
    func locationManager(_ manager: CLLocationManager, didUpdateLocations locations: [CLLocation]) {
        print("Did update location called")
//        let locValue:CLLocationCoordinate2D = manager.location!.coordinate
//        print("locations = \(locValue.latitude) \(locValue.longitude)")
        if locations.first != nil {
            print("location:: (location)")
        }
        
    }

Aaaandd I realized it's b/c I needed to use an Error of a specific type (specifically Swift.Error) This is the right method declaration for didFailWithError:

func locationManager(_ manager: CLLocationManager, didFailWithError error: Swift.Error) {
