Value of type 'NSAttributedString' has no member 'addAttributes'

Question

I checked the documentation and the method is there.

And when I look in the .h file I do see the function. I've tried cleaning and rebuilding and I still get this error after migrating to Swift 4.

Value of type 'NSAttributedString' has no member 'addAttributes'

On the following:

var options:[NSAttributedString.DocumentReadingOptionKey : Any] = [NSAttributedString.DocumentReadingOptionKey.documentType : NSAttributedString.DocumentType.html]
var attributedString = try NSAttributedString(data: data, options: options, documentAttributes: nil)
let range = (attributedString.string as NSString).range(of: attributedString.string)
attributedString.addAttributes(baseAttributes, range: range) // ERROR!

That's a method of `NSMutableAttributedString`. – rmaddy Oct 19 '17 at 17:04 — rmaddy, Oct 19 '17 at 17:04
Ah ok this must have got lost in translation. Thank you. – Aggressor Oct 19 '17 at 17:07 — Aggressor, Oct 19 '17 at 17:07
If you want you can use `addAttribute` for single. – Vini App Oct 19 '17 at 17:11 — Vini App, Oct 19 '17 at 17:11

For anyone else brought here by Google, I was missing import UIKit
