Swift's Memberwise Initializer: Argument Order Must Match Property Order

Atom · refreshed Search related

Even when argument labels match exactly, Swift's compiler-generated memberwise initializer requires arguments in the same order as the struct's stored properties, and any property with a default value must come last. A call like OAuthResult(provider:, subject:, displayName:, email:) fails with "Argument 'email' must precede argument 'displayName'" — the fix is a one-line positional swap with no label changes.
