Variable 'dateFormatter' used before being initialized in iOS Swift

Question

I am using NSDateFormatter in my project using Swift language.

I am getting following error:

Variable 'dateFormatter' used before being initialized

My code:

var date : NSDate = (NSDate.date())

var dateFormatter : NSDateFormatter

dateFormatter.dateFormat = "dd:mm:yyyy HH:mm:ss zzz"

Answer 1

Change just one line.

You not initialise the NSDateFormatter

change below line:

var dateFormatter : NSDateFormatter = NSDateFormatter()

Complete code:

var date : NSDate = (NSDate.date())

var dateFormatter : NSDateFormatter = NSDateFormatter()

dateFormatter.dateFormat = "dd:mm:yyyy HH:mm:ss zzz"
