Using NSNumber numberWithBool in Swift

I submitted my Version 2 of my app for review and it got rejected due to a high backup to iCloud - wasn't aware of this as I only have to pics in my app but anyway. Now I try to convert that code 

NSError *error = nil;
    NSURL *databaseUrl = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:databasePath];
    BOOL success = [databaseUrl setResourceValue:[NSNumber numberWithBool:YES] forKey:NSURLIsExcludedFromBackupKey error:&error];
    if(!success){
    NSLog(@"Error excluding %@ from backup %@", [databaseUrl lastPathComponent], error);
    }

to swift and I couldn't get it work... This is what I have so far...

func excludeFromBackup() {
    var error:NSError?
    var fileToExclude = NSURL.fileURLWithPath("path")
    var success:Bool = fileToExclude?.setResourceValue(NSNumber.numberWithBool(true), forKey: NSURLIsExcludedFromBackupKey, error: &error)
    if success {
        println("worked")
    } else {
        println("didn't work")
    }
}

As you see, I fail with the numberWithBool Value.

Can anyone help me? Did anyone convert it before?

Thanks in advance...

Some Swift types (Int, Bool, String, ...) are automatically bridged to the corresponding Objective-C type, so you can simply write:

let success = fileToExclude.setResourceValue(true, forKey: NSURLIsExcludedFromBackupKey, error: &error)

(More details in Working with Cocoa Data Types.)

I got it sorted... Here is the solution.

func excludeFromBackup(path:String) {
        var error:NSError?
        var fileToExclude = NSURL.fileURLWithPath(path)!
        var success:Bool = fileToExclude.setResourceValue(NSNumber(bool: true), forKey: NSURLIsExcludedFromBackupKey, error: &error)
        if success {
            println("worked")
        } else {
            println("didn't work")
        }
    }

That works just fine now.

Thanks anyway...
