Swift 3 (Xcode 8 beta 6) localizedStringWithFormat

Question

Is there a better way to get a localized format and substitute strings in with Xcode 8 Swift 3? Do I need to use NSString, and cast back and forth between NSString and String?

let localizedDue = NSString.localizedStringWithFormat(NSLocalizedString("Due: %@", comment: "due date label with date") as NSString, formattedDate) as String

Answer 1

I may be missing something, but in Swift 3, String has a type method localizedStringWithFormat and you can write something like this:

let localizedDue = String.localizedStringWithFormat(NSLocalizedString("Due: %@", comment: "due date label with date"), formattedDate)
