Answer 1

For future guys, that might get to work on autocomplete texfield with Swift 2, the code provided by @dane works well. but you have to change this line:

let cell : UITableViewCell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier(autoCompleteRowIdentifier, forIndexPath: indexPath) as UITableViewCell

by

let cell = UITableViewCell(style: UITableViewCellStyle.Default , reuseIdentifier: cellIdentifier)

Also, you might notice that the it is case sensitive, and doesn't work if you enter lowercase string (e.g cats) by default. So to solve this issue you can replace add the option "CaseSensitiveSearch" to the substringRange declaration (in the func searchAutocompleteEntriesWithSubstring). it should look like:

let substringRange :NSRange! = myString.rangeOfString(substring,options [.CaseInsensitiveSearch])

Hope it will help you save one day!!!
