How to check UITextField's text that created in UIAlertController?

I created an UIAlertController than created an UITextFields in that controller. When I try to validate the entered texts to text fields, they return nil. Here is the code: 

 let loginWithMailAlert = UIAlertController(title: "Log In with Your Mail Address", message: "Please Enter Your E-Mail Address and Your Password", preferredStyle: UIAlertControllerStyle.Alert)
        loginWithMailAlert.addTextFieldWithConfigurationHandler({[weak self](usernameField: UITextField!) in
            usernameField.delegate = self
            usernameField.placeholder = "E-Mail Address"
        })
        loginWithMailAlert.addTextFieldWithConfigurationHandler({[weak self](passwordField: UITextField!) in
            passwordField.delegate = self
            passwordField.placeholder = "Password"
            passwordField.secureTextEntry = true
        })
        loginWithMailAlert.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Log In", style: UIAlertActionStyle.Default, handler:{
            (loginWithMailAlert: UIAlertAction!) in
            print("Pressed 'Log In'")
            if self.usernameField.text == "faruk" && self.passwordField.text == "123" {
                self.performSegueWithIdentifier("loginToMain", sender: nil)
            }else{
                print("Error")
                print("Username::::\(self.usernameField.text as String!)")
            }
        }))
        loginWithMailAlert.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Cancel", style: UIAlertActionStyle.Cancel, handler:{
            (loginWithMailAlert: UIAlertAction!) in
            print("Pressed 'Cancel'")

        }))

        self.presentViewController(loginWithMailAlert, animated: true, completion: nil)

And here is the output :

Pressed 'Log In'
Error
Username::::

I added UITextFieldDelegate to the class. Can someone help?

Thanks.

Hmm for solving of you're issue just use my small code snipet. On ok button you could simply check value of the fields :

        var loginTextField: UITextField?
        var passwordTextField: UITextField?

        let alertController = UIAlertController(title: "UIAlertController", message: "UIAlertController With TextField", preferredStyle: .Alert)
        let ok = UIAlertAction(title: "OK", style: .Default, handler: { (action) -> Void in
            //Check string hear !!
            println(loginTextField?.text)
        })
        let cancel = UIAlertAction(title: "Cancel", style: .Cancel) { (action) -> Void in
            println("Cancel Button Pressed")
        }
        alertController.addAction(ok)
        alertController.addAction(cancel)
        alertController.addTextFieldWithConfigurationHandler { (textField) -> Void in
            // Enter the textfiled customization code here.
            loginTextField = textField
            loginTextField?.placeholder = "User ID"
        }
        alertController.addTextFieldWithConfigurationHandler { (textField) -> Void in
            // Enter the textfiled customization code here.
            passwordTextField = textField
            passwordTextField?.placeholder = "Password"
            passwordTextField?.secureTextEntry = true
        }

        presentViewController(alertController, animated: true, completion: nil)
