swift 3 issue with CVarArg being passed multiple times

Question

I have below code in swift 3:

 class StringUtility {

  static func Localizer(tableName: String?) -> (_ key: String, _ params: CVarArg...) -> String {

You cannot pass a variable argument list to another function, you have to pass a CVaListPointer instead. Also withVaList should be used instead of getVaList:

class StringResourceUtility {

    static func Localizer(tableName: String?) -> (_ key: String, _ params: CVaListPointer) -> String {
        return { (key: String, params: CVaListPointer) in
            let content = NSLocalizedString(key, tableName: tableName, comment: "")
            return NSString(format: content, arguments: params) as String
        }
    }
}

func localizationHelper(tableName: String, key: String, params: CVarArg...) -> String {
    let t = StringResourceUtility.Localizer(tableName: tableName)
    return withVaList(params) { t(key, $0) } 
}

Example:

let s = localizationHelper(tableName: "table", key: "%@ %@", params: "Wells", "Fargo")
print(s) // Wells Fargo
