4,068 PointsSwift wont set background button image
Hello,
I am having trouble getting my swift code to display a profile picture in the background of a button. Here is my code:
import Foundation
import Parse
import UIKit
class MainMenu: UIViewController{
var profileActionButtonTextValue: String = ""
@IBOutlet weak var ProfilePicture: UIButton!
@IBOutlet weak var ProfileActionButton: UIButton!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
//Setting the label for the ProfileActionButton to the current users name(parse)
ProfileActionButton.setTitle(profileActionButtonTextValue, forState: .Normal)
//Attempting to retrieve current users profilepicture from parse and input into Profile Picture UIImageView
if let userProfilePicture = PFUser.currentUser()?["profilepicture"] as? PFFile{
userProfilePicture.getDataInBackgroundWithBlock({
(imageData: NSData?, error: NSError?) -> Void in
if (error == nil) {
let image = UIImage(data:imageData!)
if(image == nil){
print("nil")
}else{
self.ProfilePicture.setBackgroundImage(image, forState: .Normal)
}
}
})
}
}
}
