Getting a thread breakpoint in AppDelegate for hiding status bar

I've checked and my code seems correct and exactly what's on the video.

func application(application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [NSObject: AnyObject]?) -> Bool {
    application.setStatusBarHidden(true, withAnimation: .None)
    return true

When I run the app, it hangs on the launch screen then kicks me to the app delegate file with an error on the above line of code saying "Thread 1: Breakpoint 2.1"

I'm stuck here as the app won't build.

I ran into the same issue myself just now. I think it has to do with the syntax changing slightly in the new edition of xcode 6.1. What worked for me was deleting the line beginning with "application.setStatusBarHidden..." and retyping it like this:

application.setStatusBarHidden(true, withAnimation: UIStatusBarAnimation.None)

the key difference is going through the trouble of typing out "UIStatusBarAnimation" part before the ".None." I also selected the ".None" part from the drop down menu if that makes a difference. Hope this helps!
