In my application I added one object in array when select cell and unselect and remove object when re-select cell. I used that code but give me error.
extension Array {
func indexOfObject(object : AnyObject) -> NSInteger {
return (self as NSArray).indexOfObject(object)
}
mutating func removeObject(object : AnyObject) {
for var index = self.indexOfObject(object); index != NSNotFound; index = self.indexOfObject(object) {
self.removeAtIndex(index)
}
}
}
class MyViewController: UITableViewController {
var arrContacts: [Any] = []
var contacts: [Any] = []
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didDeselectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
arrContacts.removeObject(contacts[indexPath.row])
}
}
It gives me 2 error like that:
C-style for statement has been removed in Swift 3
Value of type '[Any]' has no member 'removeObject'
The Swift equivalent to NSMutableArray
's removeObject
is:
var array = ["alpha", "beta", "gamma"]
if let index = array.firstIndex(of: "beta") {
array.remove(at: index)
}
if the objects are unique. There is no need at all to cast to NSArray
and use indexOfObject:
The API index(of:
also works but this causes an unnecessary implicit bridge cast to NSArray
.
If there are multiple occurrences of the same object use filter
. However in cases like data source arrays where an index is associated with a particular object firstIndex(of
is preferable because it's faster than filter
.
Update:
In Swift 4.2+ you can remove one or multiple occurrences of beta
with removeAll(where:)
:
array.removeAll{$0 == "beta"}
