Cannot assign [Post] to IdentifiedArrayOf<Post>

[dadixon]

I'm sure there's a quick and easy way around this but if I set my state variable to [] it works but when I put values in there I get: Cannot assign value of type '[Post]' to type 'IdentifiedArrayOf' (aka 'IdentifiedArray<UUID, Post>')

@dadixon It looks like you're encountering a type mismatch, where you have a plain Array of posts ([Post] is sugar for Array<Post>) rather than an IdentifiedArrayOf<Post>. If you provide more code we could better help point out the problem.

[dadixon]

`struct PostsState: Equatable {
var posts: IdentifiedArrayOf = []
}

switch action {

case let getPosts(posts):
state.posts = posts
}

let posts = [
PostState(id, other values),
PostState(id, other values),
PostState(id, other values)
}`

@dadixon Swift will infer that posts is Array<Post> since there's no type annotation.

If you change it to the following, it should work:

let posts: IdentifiedArrayOf<Post> = [
  ...
]

This works. Thanks
