I'm facing the error message:

"UIStoryboardSegue does not have a member named 'identifier'"

Here's the code causing the error

if (segue.identifier == "Load View") {
    // pass data to next view
}

On Obj-C it's fine using like this:

if ([segue.identifier isEqualToString:@"Load View"]) {
   // pass data to next view
}

What am I doing wrong?


This seems to be due to a problem in the UITableViewController subclass template. It comes with a version of the prepareForSegue method that would require you to unwrap the segue.

Replace your current prepareForSegue function with:

override func prepareForSegue(segue: UIStoryboardSegue!, sender: AnyObject!) {
    if (segue.identifier == "Load View") {
        // pass data to next view
    }
}

This version implicitly unwraps the parameters, so you should be fine.


Swift 4, Swift 3

override func prepare(for segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: Any?) {
    if segue.identifier == "MySegueId" {
        if let nextViewController = segue.destination as? NextViewController {
                nextViewController.valueOfxyz = "XYZ" //Or pass any values
                nextViewController.valueOf123 = 123
        }
    }
}

I think the problem is you have to use the ! to unbundle identifier

I have

override func prepareForSegue(segue: UIStoryboardSegue?, sender: AnyObject?) {
        if segue!.identifier == "Details" {
            let viewController:ViewController = segue!.destinationViewController as ViewController
            let indexPath = self.tableView.indexPathForSelectedRow()
            viewController.pinCode = self.exams[indexPath.row]

        }

    }

My understanding is that without the ! you just get a true or false value


For Swift 2.3,swift3,and swift4:

Create a perform Segue at didSelectRowAtindexPath

For Ex:

   self.performSegue(withIdentifier: "uiView", sender: self)

After that Create a prepareforSegue function to catch the Destination segue and pass the value:

Ex:

  override func prepare(for segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: Any?) {

       if segue.identifier == "uiView"{

        let destView = segue.destination as! WebViewController
        let indexpath = self.newsTableView.indexPathForSelectedRow
        let indexurl = tableDatalist[(indexpath?.row)!].link
        destView.UrlRec = indexurl

        //let url =

    }
    }

You need to create a variable named UrlRec in Destination ViewController
