Question

In swift I declared a variable as

let context:LAContext = LAContext()

It throws a warning

\"Initialisation of immuta

Answer 1

It's all in the error message

value...was never used

Your variable isn't being used anywhere, so Xcode tells you that you can remove it (because having unused variables is a waste of memory). Just use your variable somewhere and the error will go away (e.g. get a value from it, print it, etc).

Of course you mean to use it somewhere right? Otherwise you wouldn't have declared it. It's just that the Xcode (especially the new one, I noticed) checks for errors immediately, so these kinds of errors appear before you can really do anything about it.
