Replacement for deprecated .WeekdayCalendarUnit

I updated Xcode a couple weeks ago and started getting a warning on this line:

let weekdayComponent = currentCalendar?.components(.WeekdayCalendarUnit, fromDate: date)

'WeekdayCalendarUnit' was deprecated in iOS version 8.0: Use NSCalendarUnitWeekday instead

But when I replace .WeekdayCalendarUnit with .NSCalendarUnitWeekday, I get a "could not find member .NSCalendarUnitWeekday" error. I tried a few other varieties but no luck.

What should we be using instead?

Solution

  • A little tricky. Check the format. Here you go:

    let weekdayComponent = currentCalendar?.components(NSCalendarUnit.CalendarUnitWeekday, fromDate: date)

    Or:

    let weekdayComponent = currentCalendar?.components(.CalendarUnitWeekday, fromDate: date)

    I was able to find the right format in the NSCalendar Class Reference
