How can I use NSError in my iPhone App?

Question

I am working on catching errors in my app, and I am looking into using NSError. I am slightly confused about how to use it, and how to populate it.

Answer 1

Objective-C

NSError *err = [NSError errorWithDomain:@"some_domain"
                                   code:100
                               userInfo:@{
                                           NSLocalizedDescriptionKey:@"Something went wrong"
                               }];

Swift 3

let error = NSError(domain: "some_domain",
                      code: 100,
                  userInfo: [NSLocalizedDescriptionKey: "Something went wrong"])
