Setting statusbarStyle (deprecated in iOS 9.0)

Question

Just downloaded the new xCode 10.0 and saw that the old statusBarStyle has been deprecated since iOS 9.0.

Warning: Setter for \'statusBarStyle\

Answer 1

None of the other suggestions worked for me. I ended up getting it to work by:

1. Setting:

   override var preferredStatusBarStyle : UIStatusBarStyle {
       return .lightContent
   }
   

2. Calling:

   setNeedsStatusBarAppearanceUpdate()
