Set custom navigation bar class in UINavigationController

I have a custom navigationBar :

class Name_UINavigationBar: UINavigationBar {
    // code
}

and I want to set it to my navigation controller programmatically. So I tried :

var navController : UINavigationController = UINavigationController(
            navigationBarClass: object_getClass(Name_UINavigationBar),
            toolbarClass: nil)
// code

But it crash saying :

*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInternalInconsistencyException', 
    reason: 'MyProject.Name_UINavigationBar is not a subclass of UINavigationBar'

Try this.

let navController = UINavigationController(navigationBarClass: YourNavigationBar.self, toolbarClass: nil)

I encountered the same error and was able to get it working again like that.

In Swift there is no supported way to get the Class of an object. You're problem is almost certainly to do with the object_getClass method which I believe is no longer supported as of Beta 5.

I imagine APIs like this will either be updated, rewritten or simply deprecated soon. For now you will need to do it in Objective-C.
