Swift Compiler Error: Type 'UIFontWeight' (aka 'CGFloat') has no member 'bold' about showtime

[fungilation]

Ah. I confirm changing Build Settings to Swift 4.0 works with original .bold on build. Closing

Hmm that's weird. Do you know which version of Swift it's trying to compile to? It might work if you use the Swift 3 version instead of the Swift 4 version of ShowTime

It's set to Swift 3.2 (I haven't changed it) in the root of my Xcode project > Build Settings. It's a manual install so I just dropped the latest (2.3) version of ShowTime.swift into my project.

Everything works great though with my change, so I'm just reporting.

Ah okay, yeah in Swift 4 they changed some of the global variables likeUIFontWeightBold to be namespaced, but it's not backwards compatible. If you use the Swift 3 version of ShowTime it should still work without any changes needed:

Umm you got it the other way around. My Xcode build settings is set to Swift 3.2, I haven't changed it.

[KaneCheshire]

I'm not saying you have, I'm saying you're using the Swift 4 version of ShowTime which won't work if your project is using Swift 3.2, because in Swift 4 UIFontWeightBold was changed to .bold which is why you have to change it manually back to UIFontWeightBold.

The latest version of Showtime (2.3) won't work with Swift 3.2, so you should use version 1.0.1 which I've linked to above.

The README does have specific instructions for Swift 3 installation for this very reason: https://github.com/KaneCheshire/ShowTime#installation-swift-3

Awesome thanks for checking!
