Can't change input Value in Swift 4.2





.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}

I have an input UITextField and want to change his value.



I defined this UITextField like this:



@IBOutlet weak var valueInput: UITextField!


Than in viewDidLoad() I make delegate - self:



valueInput?.delegate = self


and then in viewDidLoad I try to assign value to input like this:



if let priceIn = self.valueIn Input {
valueIn.text! = strPr // (this is var and it has String format I've checked it, and I also try to make print(strPr) and I get a value)
}


Unfortunately this string is not working:



valueIn.text! = strPr


But if I write something like this



valueIn.text! = "11"


This one will work.



I've tried to to something like this also, but it's not working also:



valueIn.text! = "(strPr)"


Anyone have any ideas?



Thanks for any answer, hope somebody had the same problem and know how to resolve it.

  • self.valueIn Input — what does it even mean? It is not valid Swift.

    Show the code where strPr is declared and populated – by the way please use more descriptive variable names. I guess it's a timing/asynchonous issue. And if you mean if let priceIn = self.valueInput this optional binding is pointless because the outlet is connected reliably before viewDidLoad is called.

These lines are wrong:



valueIn.text! = strPr
valueIn.text! = "11"


valueIn.text! should only appear on the right side, in case you are sure valueIn references a valid object (not nil) and text is declared as var text: String?



Not sure exactly how your variables are declared, but try something like this:



valueIn.text = "11"


Or, if strPtr is an Optional, try this:



if let strPr = strPr {
valueIn.text = strPr
print("New valueIn.text: (valueIn.text!)")
}
