Treehouse Project ReviewerDon't understand what to do for the challenge.
Really struggling with the second part of this challenge. I'm just not sure what to do/where to start. If I could see the solution code, I could understand it, and I would be so greatly appreciative if someone could help me out.
Thanks.

22,160 PointsYeah, this one was a tough one.
Consider my code example below. The comments inline will help you understand.
// This enum was defined for us with these two cases.
enum Button {
case Done(String)
case Edit(String)
// In the second step we create this method so that we can call it against the done object.
func toUIBarButtonItem() -> UIBarButtonItem { // This method will return a UIBarButtonItem
switch self { // We are switching on our own object cases.
case .Done(let value): // Here we are passing the assigned value in as the value variable.
return UIBarButtonItem( // This is the return item for our function.
title: value, // This is the string we set when we created our done object.
style: UIBarButtonStyle.Done, // This case uses the Done button style.
target: nil,
action: nil)
case .Edit(let value): // Again we are passing the assigned value in as the value variable.
return UIBarButtonItem( // Again we will return this item for the Edit case.
title: value, // Using the value string passed in to set as the title.
style: UIBarButtonStyle.Plain, // This case would use the Plain button style.
target: nil,
action: nil)
}
}
}
let done = Button.Done("Done") // In the first step we create this object.
let doneButton = done.toUIBarButtonItem() // In the second step we call this method on the object.
It is quite a complex method. Read through it and understand how it works with the Class used in this challenge.
Feel free to ask any questions. :)
