SpriteKit and UISwipeGestureRecognizer

Question
In my viewDidLoad
function, I setup a swipe gesture recognizer:
var swipeRecognizer:UISwipeGestureRecognizer = UISwipeGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: Selector("move"))
swipeRecognizer.direction = .Right
view.addGestureRecognizer(swipeRecognizer)
And then I set up the move function:
func move(swipe:UISwipeGestureRecognizer) {
NSLog("swiped")
}
However, I keep getting the following error when I swipe right:
[_TtC8swiftris9GameScene move]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0xc81c200
2014-06-03 14:52:57.560 swiftris[45440:6777826]
*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException',
reason: '-[_TtC8swiftris9GameScene move]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0xc81c200'
What could be the problem?
Solution
You defined your function as move(swipe:UISwipeGestureRecognizer)
, which maps to the obj-c method name move:
, but your selector is just "move"
. You need to use "move:"
instead.
OTHER TIPS
As @Kevin Ballard correctly points out, your selector doesn't match your method, which explains the "unrecognized selector" exception. However, I think it's worth noting that you can ditch the cast to Selector altogether, and use a string literal in its stead.
You can construct a selector with a string literal, such as let mySelector: Selector = "tappedButton:". Because string literals can be automatically converted to selectors, you can pass a string literal to any method that accepts a selector.
Example:
let gesture: UISwipeGestureRecognizer = UISwipeGestureRecognizer(target: self, action:"move:")
