I have this code in my iOS app:
let subAttr: [NSAttributedString.Key : Any] = [NSAttributedString.Key.font : font,
NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor : color,
NSAttributedString.Key.writingDirection : NSWritingDirection.leftToRight]
This is causing a crash:

__C.NSWritingDirection

This was working fine in Swift 3 but I recently migrated to Swift 4.2. Any help?
The documentation for NSAttributedString.Key.writingDirection states:
The value of this attribute is an
NSArrayobject containingNSNumberobjects representing the nested levels of writing direction overrides, in order from outermost to innermost.This attribute provides a means to override the default bidirectional text algorithm, equivalent to using the Unicode bidi control characters LRE, RLE, LRO, or RLO paired with PDF, but as a higher-level attribute. (See Unicode Standard Annex #9 for information about the Unicode bidi formatting codes.) The
NSWritingDirectionAttributeNameconstant is a character-level attribute that provides a higher-level alternative to the inclusion of explicit bidirectional control characters in text. It is theNSAttributedStringequivalent of the HTML markup using bdo element with the dir attribute.The values of the
NSNumberobjects should be 0, 1, 2, or 3, for LRE, RLE, LRO, or RLO respectively, and combinations ofNSWritingDirection.leftToRightandNSWritingDirection.rightToLeftwithNSTextWritingDirectionEmbeddingorNSTextWritingDirectionOverride, as shown in Table 1.
At a minimum you need to provide an array:
let subAttr: [NSAttributedString.Key : Any] = [
.font : font,
.foregroundColor : color,
.writingDirection : [ NSNumber(value: NSWritingDirection.leftToRight.rawValue) ]
]
