Understanding crash report (Partial apply...) in Swift

Question

I'm new to Swift programming, Recently I have implemented spotlight search for my app with Swift. Everything is working well and good however I"m getting few crash reports nowadays and I have no clue what is "Partial apply" and why it is crashing. As I'm unable to simulate it locally I"m trying to solve it by using crash logs. Following is the crash report...

I'm trying to reindex search item during app launch time.

 static func reIndexAllItem () {

        if #available(iOS 9.0, *) {

            clearAllItem(OnCompletion: indexAllItem)


        } else {
            // Fallback on earlier versions
            APLog("SpotLight index not added for older versions")
        }
    }
}

static private func indexAllItem () {

    for dataItem in APAuthUrlDataSource.sharedInstance().accountArray { // Crash logs points to this line.

        addSearchIndexForItem(dataItem as! APAuthUrlDataItm)
    }
} // Line number 77

static func clearAllItem (OnCompletion completion : (()-> Void)!) {

        if #available(iOS 9.0, *) {
            CSSearchableIndex.defaultSearchableIndex().deleteAllSearchableItemsWithCompletionHandler { (error) -> Void in
                // On completion.
                APLog("successfully cleared all index in spotlight search")
                **completion()** //Line number 85
            }
        } else {
            // Fallback on earlier versions
            APLog("SpotLight index not cleared for older versions")
        }
}

Note: reindexAlltem is getting called from didFinishLaunchingWithOptions method.

Any help would really appreciated, Thanks in Advance.

It seems that the cast to APAuthUrlDataItm fails. I assume that accountArray is not explicitly of type [APAuthUrlDataItm] otherwise why would you need that cast?

Consider this code:

    for dataItem in accountArray {
        if let item = dataItem as? APAuthUrlDataItm {
            addSearchIndexForItem(item)
        }
    }
