i'm having some problems with my weather app for iOS. I'm new in programming in xCode, so it could be a silly error. Anyway, the problem is: I'm trying to add a refresh button in my Single Page App. The button has a IBAction function associated, so that when it is pressed it should get hidden and the activity indicator should appear. That is the function:
@IBAction func reload() {
refreshButton.hidden = true
refreshActivityIndicator.hidden = false
refreshActivityIndicator.startAnimating()
}
and that is the declaration of the variables:
@IBOutlet weak var refreshButton: UIButton!
@IBOutlet weak var refreshActivityIndicator: UIActivityIndicatorView!
when i run the app and press the refresh button, the app crash and i get this error:
@UIApplicationMain class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate { <--thread 1 signal sigarbt
the console doesn't show anything else. What could be the problem?

// NSURL SESSION
//The NSURLSession class and related classes provide an API for downloading content via HTTP. This API provides a rich set of delegate methods for supporting authentication and gives your app the ability to perform background downloads when your app is not running or, in iOS, while your app is suspended. With the NSURLSession API, your app creates a series of sessions, each of which coordinates a group of related data transfer tasks. For example, if you are writing a web browser, your app might create one session per tab or window. Within each session, your app adds a series of tasks, each of which represents a request for a specific URL (and for any follow-on URLs if the original URL returned an HTTP redirect).
