Swift custom UITableViewController: switch statement case label section enum

Question

To make my code more readable & maintainable, what's the best way to use labels instead of hardcoded Int s for case labels in a switch statement with a control expression of type Int ?

Eg, inside my SettingsTableViewController , I tried

enum Section : Int {
    case Phone
    case LogOut
    case DeleteAccount
}

and in – tableView:didSelectRowAtIndexPath:

switch indexPath.section {
case .Phone:
    // Push EditPhoneViewController
case .LogOut:
    // Log out
case .DeleteAccount:
    // Present action-sheet confirmation
}

but got the compile error

Enum case pattern cannot match values of the non-enum type 'Int'

Answer 1

In the switch you can't simply use indexPath.section as that is not the same type as your enum.

Use switch Section(rawValue: indexPath.section)!
