Push ViewController with coder aDecoder: NSCoder

I'm trying to push a view controller using:

var vc2 = ViewController2()

self.navigationController?.pushViewController(vc2, animated: false)

but in my second view controller, I'm have:

required init(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) {
    super.init(coder: aDecoder)
}

But I get the error Missing argument for parameter 'coder' in call in the first ViewController. What goes in the parenthesis in the first view controller?

There are two ways you can fix this issue:

The easy way, just call the function passing nil to the parameters:

var vc2 = ViewController2(nibName: nil, bundle: nil)

The best way, create convenience initializers in your class:

class ViewController2: UIViewController {
    required init(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) {
        fatalError("This class does not support NSCoding")
    }
    override init (frame : CGRect) {
        super.init(frame : frame)
    }
    convenience override init () {
        self.init(frame:CGRectZero)
    }
}

and now you can call:

var vc2 = ViewController2()

class ViewController2: UIViewController {
    convenience init () {
        self.init(nibName: nil, bundle: nil)
    }
}

Now you can call ViewController2()
