"Init(URL:)" has been renamed to "init(url:)" - swift 3 wkwebview error


First time using webkit alongside swift 3, and I keep getting this error regarding a web view load request. Why is Xcode announcing the renaming but maintaining the error?

var webView: WKWebView!
var websites = ["apple.com", "hackingwithswift.com"]

override func loadView() {
    webView = WKWebView()
    webView.navigationDelegate = self
    view = webView
}

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()

    let url = NSURL(string: "https://" + websites[0])!
    webView.load(NSURLRequest(URL: url as URL) as URLRequest)
    webView.allowsBackForwardNavigationGestures = true
}

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

Solution

  • As suggested by @LeoDabus, here's the code

    class Controller: UIViewController {
        var webView: WKWebView!
        var websites = ["apple.com", "hackingwithswift.com"]
    
        override func loadView() {
            webView = WKWebView()
            webView.navigationDelegate = self
            view = webView
        }
        override func viewDidLoad() {
            super.viewDidLoad()
    
            let url = URL(string: "https://" + websites[0])!
            webView.load(URLRequest(url: url) as URLRequest)
            webView.allowsBackForwardNavigationGestures = true
    
        }
    }
