Use function from a structure in class - ios

Question

I am new to Swift and I have trouble using classes and structures.
I have a Structure called Workspace:
struct Workspace: Decodable {
var guid: String
var name: String
func getUserWorkspace(base: String, completed: #escaping () -> ()){
//some code
}
}
Here is my class User:
public class User {
var Wor = [Workspace]()
var WorData:Workspace? = nil
//+some other var & functions
}
So what I'm doing in my view controller is this:
class SecondViewController: UIViewController, UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource {
#IBOutlet weak var listView: UITableView!
var co = User()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
co.WorData?.getUserWorkspace(base: co.Base) {
print("success")
self.listView.reloadData()
self.updateVertically()
}
listView.delegate = self
listView.dataSource = self
}
The problem is that the code never goes inside the function co.WorData?.getUserWorkspace(base: co.Base)
Before I put it in the structure it was directly in the class but since I changed it it doesn't work anymore so I think I might be calling it the wrong way ?

Answer 1

WorData is nil.
Conditional unwrapping (co.WorData?.getUserWorkspace(base: co.Base) will check WorData has a value before trying to call the method. If it was nil and Swift didn't do this, it would crash.
You either need to set it as new all the time
var worData = Workspace()
Set it after class init
var user = User()
user.worData = Workspace() // or pass a specific one in
or require your User object to be initialised with a Workspace
class User: NSObject {
var wor = [Workspace]()
var workspace: Workspace // use lower camel case for var names
required init(workspace: Workspace) {
self.workspace = workspace
}
}
