条件绑定中的Xcode 6.1错误绑定值必须是Optional类型

Question

My current swift code

override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, willDisplayCell cell: UITableViewCell, forRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) {
cell.backgroundColor = UIColor.blackColor()

if let textLabel = cell.textLabel {
  textLabel.textColor = UIColor.whiteColor()
  textLabel.highlightedTextColor = textLabel.textColor
}

is getting error: "bound value in a conditional binding must be Optional type" on the 3 line:

   if let textLabel = cell.textLabel {

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

cell.textLabel keeps changing its optional status with each release of Xcode, which is highly irritating. Check to see how it's defined in the version you're using, you may not need the optional binding.
