Google Maps ambiguous use of a GMSMapViewType

I just upgraded to Xcode 7.1. When I try to set the mapType of a GMSMapView I get the error Ambiguous use of 'kGMSTypeNormal', Ambiguous use of 'kGMSTypeTerrain', and Ambiguous use of 'kGMSTypeHybrid'.

@IBOutlet weak var mapView: GMSMapView!

func myfunc() {
      if let myMapType = NSUserDefaults.standardUserDefaults().stringForKey(SettingsTableViewController.History.MapType) {
            switch myMapType {
            case "kGMSTypeNormal":
                mapView.mapType = kGMSTypeNormal
            case "kGMSTypeTerrain":
                mapView.mapType = kGMSTypeTerrain
            case "kGMSTypeHybrid":
                mapView.mapType = kGMSTypeHybrid
            default: break
                mapView.mapType = kGMSTypeNormal
            }
        } else {
            mapView.mapType = kGMSTypeNormal
        }
}

here is the updated version 

import UIKit      
import GoogleMaps

class ViewController: UIViewController, GMSMapViewDelegate {
    var mapView: GMSMapView!

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        mapView = GMSMapView(frame: self.view.bounds)
        mapView.animate(toViewingAngle: 45)
        mapView.mapType = GMSMapViewType.satellite
        self.view = mapView


    }

mapView.mapType = GMSMapViewType(rawValue: 1)!
  • kGMSTypeNormal = 1
  • kGMSTypeSatellite = 2
  • kGMSTypeTerrain = 3
  • kGMSTypeHybrid = 4
  • kGMSTypeNone = 5

You need to use like this

mapView.mapType = GoogleMaps.kGMSTypeSatellite

I'm not sure why but putting "GoogleMaps." in front of all the kGMSTypes (i.e. GoogleMaps.kGMSTypeNormal) fixed the problem.

If you open GMSMapViewType, you will see it defined as enum. In your switch statement, you're comparing it with strings which is wrong. You should better compare them with integers.

kGMSTypeNormal = 1
kGMSTypeSatellite = 2
kGMSTypeTerrain = 3
kGMSTypeHybrid = 4
kGMSTypeNone = 5
