Cannot convert value of type '[Record]' to type 'Record' in coercion

Question

Im re-writing an iOS app I made using C# and Xamarin to Swift for obvious reasons of Xamarin\'s pricing, and low documentation. Following this tutorial for including a UIS

Answer 1

Because I think type of your self.records is [Record] and you are trying to casting it as single Record which is not an Array. So it is not possible.

Try this:

let array = (self.records as [Record]).filteredArrayUsingPredicate(searchPredicate)

UPDATE:

Update your updateSearchResultsForSearchController method like this:

func updateSearchResultsForSearchController(searchController: UISearchController)
{
    self.filteredRecords.removeAll(keepCapacity: false)


    self.filteredRecords = self.records.filter() {
        ($0.album.lowercaseString).containsString(searchController.searchBar.text!.lowercaseString)
    }
    self.tableView.reloadData()
}

If you want to search for both album and artist then replace this line:

($0.album.lowercaseString).containsString(searchController.searchBar.text!.lowercaseString)

with this line:

($0.album.lowercaseString).containsString(searchController.searchBar.text!.lowercaseString) || ($0.artist.lowercaseString).containsString(searchController.searchBar.text!.lowercaseString)
