Type 'AnyObject' does not conform to protocol 'SequenceType'

Question

func loadThumbnails() {

    let paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSSearchPathDirectory.DocumentDirectory, NSSearchPathDomainMask.UserDomainMask, true)
           


        

Answer 1

Apple states in The Swift Programming Language:

The for-in loop performs a set of statements for each item in a range, sequence, collection, or progression.

Right now, directoryContent is just conforming to protocol AnyObject, so you can't use for loops over it. If you want to do so, you have to do something similar to the following:

for item in directoryContent as [AnyObject] {
    //Do stuff
}
