segmented control - unrecognized selector sent to instance

Question

I want to use sender to get the value from segmented control, but I am getting the unrecognized selector sent to instance error. The segmented control was added within a view. I've tried removing the semicolon and/or sender and none of the prior posts I've found seem to help. Any ideas?

Swift Code

        var segCntrl = UISegmentedControl(items: ["Yes","No"])
        segCntrl.tag = 100
        segCntrl.center = CGPointMake(qView.bounds.width/2, qView.bounds.minY+40)
        self.qView.addSubview(segCntrl)

        func segmentorSwitch(sender: AnyObject) {
            if(sender.selectedSegmentIndex == 1) {
                println("Yes selected")
            }
            else if(sender.selectedSegmentIndex == 2) {
                println("No selected")
            }
        }
        segCntrl.addTarget(self, action: "segmentorSwitch:", forControlEvents: UIControlEvents.ValueChanged)

Error code:

Looks like segmentorSwitch: is implemented inside another method. Define it outside the method in which your code is contained, and this should be fixed.
