"Delegate must respond to locationManager:didUpdateLocations:" error thrown when app does

Time:11-15

Right now I am just trying to get the location printed on screen, and will expand upon it later, but I am getting the following console output (the app also crashes - it is being built and run on a physical device):

Here is the code I am using:

import Foundation

import CoreLocation
import CoreLocationUI

class LocationManager: NSObject, ObservableObject, CLLocationManagerDelegate {
    
    let manager = CLLocationManager()
    
    @Published var location: CLLocationCoordinate2D?
    
    override init() {
        super.init()
        manager.delegate = self
        manager.requestWhenInUseAuthorization()
    }
    
    func locationManager(_ manager: CLLocationManager, didUpdateLocations locations: [CLLocation], didFailWithError error: Error) {
        location = locations.first?.coordinate
    }
    
    func requestLocation() {
        manager.requestLocation()
    }
}

And the code for the view (in a different Swift file):

import SwiftUI
import _CoreLocationUI_SwiftUI

struct SettingsView: View {
    
    @StateObject var locationManager = LocationManager()
    

    var body: some View {
        NavigationView {
            List {              
                VStack {
                    if let location = locationManager.location {
                        Text("Your location: \(location.latitude), \(location.longitude)")
                    }
                    
                    LocationButton {
                        locationManager.requestLocation()
                    }
                    .frame(height: 44)
                    .padding()
                    
                }
            
            }
            .navigationTitle("Settings")
        
        }
    }
}

struct SettingsView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
    static var previews: some View {
        SettingsView()
    }
}

I have tried restarting the project and running the build on both a physical device and the emulator. Both result in the same crash and output when the LocationButton is pressed.

CodePudding user response:

The error is correct. You have not implemented the locationManager:didUpdateLocations: method. You have some method named locationManager:didUpdateLocations:didFailWithError:.

Instead of:

func locationManager(_ manager: CLLocationManager, didUpdateLocations locations: [CLLocation], didFailWithError error: Error) {
    location = locations.first?.coordinate
}

you need (drop the didFailWithError parameter):

func locationManager(_ manager: CLLocationManager, didUpdateLocations locations: [CLLocation]) {
    location = locations.first?.coordinate
}

If you wish to handle any errors, also implement the locationManager(_:didFailWithError:) delegate method.
