UIControlState.Normal is Unavailable

Previously for UIButton instances, you were able to pass in UIControlState.Normal for setTitle or setImage. .Normal is no longer available, what should I use instead?

let btn = UIButton(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 20, height: 20))
btn.setTitle("title", for: .Normal) // does not compile

(This is a canonical Q&A pair to prevent the flood of duplicate questions related to this UIButton and UIControl changes with iOS 10 and Swift 3)

Swift 5

Replace from

btn.setTitle("title", for: .Normal)

to

btn.setTitle("title", for: UIControl.State.normal)

Swift 3 update:

It appears that Xcode 8/Swift 3 brought UIControlState.normal back:

public struct UIControlState : OptionSet {

    public init(rawValue: UInt)


    public static var normal: UIControlState { get }

    public static var highlighted: UIControlState { get } // used when UIControl isHighlighted is set

    public static var disabled: UIControlState { get }

    public static var selected: UIControlState { get } // flag usable by app (see below)

    @available(iOS 9.0, *)
    public static var focused: UIControlState { get } // Applicable only when the screen supports focus

    public static var application: UIControlState { get } // additional flags available for application use

    public static var reserved: UIControlState { get } // flags reserved for internal framework use
}

UIControlState.Normal has been renamed to UIControlState.normal and removed from the iOS SDK. For "Normal" options, use an empty array to construct an empty option set.

let btn = UIButton(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 20, height: 20))

// Does not work
btn.setTitle("title", for: .Normal) // 'Normal' has been renamed to 'normal'
btn.setTitle("title", for: .normal) // 'normal' is unavailable: use [] to construct an empty option set

// Works
btn.setTitle("title", for: [])

Apple brought back the normal control state in more recent versions of Xcode beta. Upgrade to the most recent Xcode beta and use .normal.

The .Normal is removed(iOS 10 DP1), you can use the [] or UIControlState(rawValue: UInt(0)) to replace the .Normal, if you don't want to change codes all around(in case apple add it again or you don't like the []), you can just add once this code

extension UIControlState {
    public static var Normal: UIControlState { return [] }
}

or

extension UIControlState {
    public static var Normal: UIControlState { return UIControlState(rawValue: UInt(0)) }
}

then all the .Normal work like before.
