Subclass GMSAutocompleteViewController to use it with Eureka

Question

I'm trying to subclass GMSAutocompleteViewController form GooglePlaces SDK like this :

class AddressFinderViewController: GMSAutocompleteViewController, TypedRowControllerType {

public var row: RowOf<String>!
public var completionCallback : ((UIViewController) -> ())?



convenience public init(_ callback: (UIViewController) -> ()){
    self.init(nibName: nil, bundle: nil)
    completionCallback = callback
}



override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()

      }
  }

Then I use this to call it :

AddressFinderViewController(){ _ in }
            }, completionCallback: { vc in
                vc.navigationController?.popViewControllerAnimated(true)
        }

But I get this error :

Answer 1

You likely need to call super.init() in AddressFinderViewController's init function to make sure that GMSAutocompleteViewController is initialized properly.
