regionDidChangeAnimated not working - ios

Question

I am trying to run just a simple print function when the user moves the map around using gesture or search (moves the map in general) I've followed the apple ref guides and i get errors. Ive followed other stack overflow posts and other google search results. I don't know if it is because im using swift 2 or something in my code elsewhere that is contradicting. If somebody could help me that would be greatly appreciated. Here is my code
import UIKit
import MapKit
import CoreLocation
class ViewController: UIViewController, MKMapViewDelegate,
CLLocationManagerDelegate, UISearchBarDelegate
{
#IBOutlet weak var mapView: MKMapView!
#IBOutlet weak var searchBar: UISearchBar!
let locationManager = CLLocationManager()
#IBAction func showSearchBar(sender: AnyObject) {
searchController = UISearchController(searchResultsController: nil)
searchController.hidesNavigationBarDuringPresentation = false
self.searchController.searchBar.delegate = self
presentViewController(searchController, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
#IBAction func locateMe(sender: AnyObject) {
self.locationManager.delegate = self
self.locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyBest
self.locationManager.requestWhenInUseAuthorization()
self.locationManager.startUpdatingLocation()
self.mapView.showsUserLocation = true
}
#IBAction func photographer(sender: AnyObject) {
}
#IBAction func buyer(sender: AnyObject) {
}
var searchController:UISearchController!
var annotation:MKAnnotation!
var localSearchRequest:MKLocalSearchRequest!
var localSearch:MKLocalSearch!
var localSearchResponse:MKLocalSearchResponse!
var error:NSError!
var pointAnnotation:MKPointAnnotation!
var pinAnnotationView:MKPinAnnotationView!
override func viewDidLoad()
{
super.viewDidLoad()
self.locationManager.delegate = self
self.locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyBest
self.locationManager.requestWhenInUseAuthorization()
self.locationManager.startUpdatingLocation()
self.mapView.showsUserLocation = true
func mapView(mapView: MKMapView!, regionDidChangeAnimated animated: Bool) {
hobo()
}
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning()
{
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
// MARK: - Location Delegate Methods
func locationManager(manager: CLLocationManager, didUpdateLocations locations: [CLLocation])
{
let location = locations.last
let center = CLLocationCoordinate2D(latitude: location!.coordinate.latitude, longitude: location!.coordinate.longitude)
let region = MKCoordinateRegion(center: center, span: MKCoordinateSpan(latitudeDelta: 0.01, longitudeDelta: 0.01))
self.mapView.setRegion(region, animated: true)
self.locationManager.stopUpdatingLocation()
}
func locationManager(manager: CLLocationManager, didFailWithError error: NSError)
{
print("Error: " + error.localizedDescription)
}
func searchBarSearchButtonClicked(searchBar: UISearchBar){
//1
searchBar.resignFirstResponder()
dismissViewControllerAnimated(true, completion: nil)
if self.mapView.annotations.count != 0{
annotation = self.mapView.annotations[0]
self.mapView.removeAnnotation(annotation)
}
//2
localSearchRequest = MKLocalSearchRequest()
localSearchRequest.naturalLanguageQuery = searchBar.text
localSearch = MKLocalSearch(request: localSearchRequest)
localSearch.startWithCompletionHandler { (localSearchResponse, error) -> Void in
if localSearchResponse == nil{
let alertController = UIAlertController(title: nil, message: "Place Not Found", preferredStyle: UIAlertControllerStyle.Alert)
alertController.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Dismiss", style: UIAlertActionStyle.Default, handler: nil))
self.presentViewController(alertController, animated: true, completion: nil)
return
}
//3
self.pointAnnotation = MKPointAnnotation()
self.pointAnnotation.title = searchBar.text
self.pointAnnotation.coordinate = CLLocationCoordinate2D(latitude: localSearchResponse!.boundingRegion.center.latitude, longitude: localSearchResponse!.boundingRegion.center.longitude)
self.pinAnnotationView = MKPinAnnotationView(annotation: self.pointAnnotation, reuseIdentifier: nil)
self.mapView.centerCoordinate = self.pointAnnotation.coordinate
self.mapView.addAnnotation(self.pinAnnotationView.annotation!)
}
}
func hobo(){
print("testing")
}
}

Make sure you set yourself as your map view's delegate in IB. Also, I'd try moving regionDidChangeAnimated out of viewDidLoad.
