Question

I have the following class written in an earlier version of Swift. The Swift 2 Compiler warns that

\'kABPersonAddressStreetKey\' was d

Answer 1

You need to cast your subtitle as AnyObject as shown below:

let addressDict = [String(kABPersonAddressStreetKey): self.subtitle as! AnyObject]

and your complete code for "func mapItem() -> MKMapItem { }" will be:

func mapItem() -> MKMapItem {
    let addressDict = [String(kABPersonAddressStreetKey): self.subtitle as! AnyObject]
    let placemark = MKPlacemark(coordinate: self.coordinate, addressDictionary: addressDict)

    let mapItem = MKMapItem(placemark: placemark)
    mapItem.name = self.title

    return mapItem
  }

Answer 2

You should use:

1. import Contacts instead import AddressBook.
2. CNPostalAddressStreetKey instead kABPersonAddressStreetKey.

Answer 3

Replace import AddressBook with import Contacts and also replace String(kABPersonAddressStreetKey) with String(CNPostalAddressStreetKey)

import Foundation
import MapKit
import Contacts

class Artwork: NSObject, MKAnnotation {
let title: String?
let locationName: String
let discipline: String
let coordinate: CLLocationCoordinate2D

init(title: String, locationName: String, discipline: String,       coordinate: CLLocationCoordinate2D) {
    self.title = title
    self.locationName = locationName
    self.discipline = discipline
    self.coordinate = coordinate

    super.init()
}

var subtitle: String? {
    return locationName
}

// annotation callout info button opens this mapItem in Maps app
func mapItem() -> MKMapItem {
    let addressDictionary = [String(CNPostalAddressStreetKey): self.subtitle!]
    let placemark = MKPlacemark(coordinate: coordinate, addressDictionary: addressDictionary)
    let mapItem = MKMapItem(placemark: placemark)
    mapItem.name = title

    return mapItem

}
