Hi I get this error in swift 2.0

Cannot invoke 'components' with an argument list of type '(NSCalendarUnit, fromDate: NSDate?, toDate: NSDate?, options: nil)'

var hoy = dataFormatter.stringFromDate(NSDate())
        var despues = dataFormatter.stringFromDate(fecha)
        var calHoy = dataFormatter.dateFromString(hoy)
        var calcDesp = dataFormatter.dateFromString(despues)
        let cal = NSCalendar.currentCalendar()
        let unit:NSCalendarUnit = .Day
        let components = cal.components(unit, fromDate: calcDesp, toDate: calHoy, options: nil)

As of Swift 2, NS_OPTIONS (such as NSCalendarOptions) are mapped to Swift as a OptionSetType which offers a set-like interface. In particular, "no options" can now be specified as [] instead of nil:

let components = cal.components(unit, fromDate: calcDesp!, toDate: calHoy!,
                               options: [])
