UITextInputMode.activeInputModes() crashes in Swift 2

Question

I want to get UITextInputMode in Swift 2 but UITextInputMode.activeInputModes() crashes.

    let x = UITextInputMode.activeInputModes() // crash         


        

Answer 1

I was able to work around this bug by using an Objective-C bridge.

Bridge.h

#ifndef Bridge_h
#define Bridge_h

#import "Kludge.h"

#endif

Kludge.h

#ifndef Kludge_h
#define Kludge_h

#import 

@interface Kludge : NSObject

+ (NSArray *)activeInputModes;

@end

#endif

Kludge.m

#import "Kludge.h"

@implementation Kludge

+ (NSArray *)activeInputModes {
  return (NSArray *)[UITextInputMode activeInputModes];
}

@end

From Swift, you can now call Kludge.activeInputModes() and get the correct results.
