Http request on iOS app starting

Question

I want to send http request on every myapp-starting. How to do this? I try:

class MainViewController: UITableViewController {
func my_request(){

        let url = NSURL(string: "http://www.stackoverflow.com")
        let request = NSURLRequest(URL: url)
        let connection = NSURLConnection(request: request, delegate:nil, startImmediately: true)
        println(connection)

        }

        let lol = my_request()
}

But I have an error: Missing argument for parameter #1 in call

How to fix that?

Thanks!

Answer 1

my_request() returns nothing, if you just want to call the function, use only

my_request()

I would suggest to put this in the ViewDidLoad function (on your Main ViewController of your App)
