Migrating to Xcode 8 — SwiftlyDropbox error?

Hi all,

 

I've migrated a project to Xcode 8. I did the Swift 2.3 syntax conversion and ran a pod update on SwiftyDropbox.

I'm getting one error trying to compile. In the ViewController, on this line:

 

Dropbox.authorizeFromController(self) // initialize dropbox

 

It says "Missing argument for parameter 'controller' in call"

 

I'm a bit of a newbie in Swift here, and am having a hard time figuring out what is causing the problem.

 

Anyone else run into this?

    Hi Perry, the authorizeFromController method was updated (to be extension-safe). You should call it like this now:

    DropboxClientsManager.authorizeFromController(UIApplication.shared,
    controller: self,
    openURL: { (url: URL) -> Void in
    UIApplication.shared.openURL(url)
    })
