You can do it as simple as this using swift 2:

let alertController = UIAlertController(title: "iOScreator", message:
        "Hello, world!", preferredStyle: UIAlertControllerStyle.Alert)
alertController.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Dismiss", style: UIAlertActionStyle.Destructive,handler: { action in
        self.pressed()
}))

func pressed()
{
    print("you pressed")
}

    **or**


let alertController = UIAlertController(title: "iOScreator", message:
        "Hello, world!", preferredStyle: UIAlertControllerStyle.Alert)
alertController.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Dismiss", style: UIAlertActionStyle.Destructive,handler: { action in
      print("pressed")
 }))

All the answers above are correct i am just showing another way that can be done.

Functions are first-class objects in Swift  So if you don t want to use a closure  you can also just define a function with the appropriate signature and then pass it as the handler argument  Observe   func someHandler alert  UIAlertAction            Do something       alert addAction UIAlertAction title   Okay                                 style  UIAlertActionStyle Default                                handler  someHandler

Lets assume that you want an UIAlertAction with main title  two actions  save and discard  and cancel button   let actionSheetController   UIAlertController  title   My Action Title   message      preferredStyle  UIAlertControllerStyle ActionSheet         Add Cancel-Action     actionSheetController addAction UIAlertAction title   Cancel   style  UIAlertActionStyle Cancel  handler  nil          Add Save-Action     actionSheetController addAction UIAlertAction title   Save   style  UIAlertActionStyle Default  handler     actionSheetController  - gt  Void in         print  handle Save action                     Add Discard-Action     actionSheetController addAction UIAlertAction title   Discard   style  UIAlertActionStyle Default  handler     actionSheetController  - gt  Void in         print  handle Discard action                      present actionSheetController     presentViewController actionSheetController  animated  true  completion  nil    This works for swift 2  Xcode Version 7 0 beta 3

Instead of self in your handler  put  alert  UIAlertAction    This should make your code look like this       alert addAction UIAlertAction title   Okay                             style  UIAlertActionStyle Default                          handler    alert  UIAlertAction   in println  Foo        this is the proper way to define handlers in Swift   As Brian pointed out below  there are also easier ways to define these handlers  Using his methods is discussed in the book  look at the section titled Closures
