Property 'self.animator' not initialized at super.init call

Question

import UIKit

@objc protocol SideBarDelegate{

      func sideBarDidSelectButtonAtIndex(Index:Int)

       optional func sideBarWillClose()
       optional func sideBarWillOpen()
}


class SideBar: NSObject,SideBarTableViewControllerDelegate {

       let barWidth:CGFloat = 150
       let sideBarTableViewTopInset:CGFloat = 64
       let sideBarContainerView:UIView = UIView()
       let sideBarTableViewController:SideBarTableViewController = SideBarTableViewController()
       var originView:UIView?

       var animator:UIDynamicAnimator
       var delegate:SideBarDelegate
       var isSideBarOpen:Bool = false

    override init() {

        super.init()    //ERROR ON THIS LINE
    }

    init(sourceView:UIView, menuItems:Array<String>) {


           super.init()        //ERROR ON THIS LINE
           originView = sourceView
           sideBarTableViewController.tableData = menuItems
           animator = UIDynamicAnimator(referenceView: originView!)

           setupSideBar()



             let showGestureRecognizer:UISwipeGestureRecognizer = UISwipeGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: "handleSwipe:")
        showGestureRecognizer.direction = UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirection.Right
        originView!.addGestureRecognizer(showGestureRecognizer)

             let hideGestureRecognizer:UISwipeGestureRecognizer = UISwipeGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: "handleSwipe:")
        hideGestureRecognizer.direction = UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirection.Left
        originView!.addGestureRecognizer(hideGestureRecognizer)
    }
}

I HAVE IMPLEMENTED MORE METHODS BELOW BUT ERRORS ARE IN THESE LINES OF CODE

Perhaps this is an obvious error (ios is not my domain) but typically some more explaination often makes it easier to people to help you. — Mattias Lindberg, Dec 17 '15 at 06:26

1. Please edit your question to fix the code formatting. 2. Include explaination in the question, not just add a link to the comments. — Mattias Lindberg, Dec 17 '15 at 06:41

Maybe it's not necessary to override init(). Or you declare the init(sourceView:UIView, menuItems:Array<String>) as convenience like below:

convenience init(sourceView:UIView, menuItems:Array<String>) {
           super.init()
           self.init() // don't forget calling self.init
           originView = sourceView
           sideBarTableViewController.tableData = menuItems
           animator = UIDynamicAnimator(referenceView: originView!)
           setupSideBar()
