Swift 3: URLSession / URLRequest Not Working
<p>I am still trying to convert our application from Swift 2 over to Swift 3 because I am being forced to since all of our Apple devices are now running iOS 10. </p>

<p>I have gone through the code conversion and thought I was doing well however, while attempting to debug my JSON issues (posted in another question), I am now dealing with requests not even being sent.</p>

<pre><code>let params: [String:AnyObject] = [
    "email":"\(self.preferences.string(forKey: "preference_email")!)" as AnyObject
]
let requestParams: [String:AnyObject] = [
    "action":"601" as AnyObject,
    "params":params as AnyObject
]

do {
    let requestObject = try JSONSerialization.data(withJSONObject: requestParams, options:[])
    var request = URLRequest(url: URL(string: "http://domain.tld/path/")!)

    request.httpBody = requestObject
    request.httpMethod = "POST"

    let config = URLSessionConfiguration.default
    let session = URLSession(configuration: config)

    NSLog("Got here?")

    session.dataTask(with: request) {data, response, error in
        guard let data = data, error == nil else {
            print("error=\(error)")
            return
        }

        NSLog("Got here 3?")

        let object:JSON = JSON(data:data)

        NSLog("Object: \(object)")
    }.resume()

    NSLog("Got here 4?")
} catch {
    NSLog("Got here catch?")
}

NSLog("End of getUser")
</code></pre>

<p>The code above yields the following output:</p>

<pre><code>2016-10-04 13:00:12.011969 OneTouch[1589:623015] [DYMTLInitPlatform] platform initialization successful

</code></pre>

<p>Which means that the request isn't even being made. Is there some key that I have to add to the PLIST again? This is starting to get annoying.</p>

<p>Below is my old code and it isn't even working anymore:</p>

<pre><code>let params: [String:AnyObject] = [
    "email":"\(self.preferences.string(forKey: "preference_email")!)" as AnyObject
]
let requestParams: [String:AnyObject] = [
    "action":"601" as AnyObject,
    "params":params as AnyObject
]

do {
    let requestObject = try JSONSerialization.data(withJSONObject: requestParams, options:[])
    let request = NSMutableURLRequest(url: URL(string: "http://domain.tld/path/" as String)!, cachePolicy:NSURLRequest.CachePolicy.reloadIgnoringLocalCacheData, timeoutInterval: 20)

    request.httpBody = requestObject
    request.httpMethod = "POST"

    NSLog("Got here?")

    let task = URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: request as URLRequest, completionHandler: {data, response, error in
        if error != nil {
            NSLog("Got here 2?")
        }

        NSLog("Got here 3?")

        let object:JSON = JSON(data:data!)

        NSLog("Object: \(object)")
    })

    NSLog("Got here 4?")

    task.resume()
} catch {
    NSLog("Got here catch?")
}

NSLog("End of getUser")
</code></pre>

<p>The code above yields the same output as the other code does!</p>
