When I'm using UISwipeGestureRecognizer I'm getting Thread 1:Signal SIGABRT


i exactly wrote the code as a youtube video tutorial for training purposes. this is the second program i make with the same error. is something wrong with my iOS simulator ?

here is the code:

import UIKit

class ViewController: UIViewController {

@IBOutlet weak var Label: UILabel!
override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
    // Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.

    var leftSwipe = UISwipeGestureRecognizer(target:self,action: Selector("handleSwipes"))
     var rightSwipe = UISwipeGestureRecognizer(target:self,action: Selector("handleSwipes"))
     var upSwipe = UISwipeGestureRecognizer(target:self,action: Selector("handleSwipes"))
     var downSwipe = UISwipeGestureRecognizer(target:self,action: Selector("handleSwipes"))

    leftSwipe.direction = .Left
    rightSwipe.direction = .Right
    upSwipe.direction = .Up
    downSwipe.direction = .Down

    view.addGestureRecognizer(leftSwipe)
    view.addGestureRecognizer(rightSwipe)
    view.addGestureRecognizer(upSwipe)
    view.addGestureRecognizer(downSwipe)


}

override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
    super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
    // Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}


func handleSwipes(sender:UISwipeGestureRecognizer){

    if (sender.direction == .Left){
        Label.text = "Left"
    }
    if (sender.direction == .Right){
        Label.text = "Right"
    }
    if (sender.direction == .Up){
        Label.text = "Up"
    }
    if (sender.direction == .Down){
        Label.text = "Down"
    }
}

}

the error is:

Solution

  • Add a colon after method's name:

    Selector("handleSwipes:")

    It's because handleSwipes has an argument in its definition.
