Current Location is Nil In SwiftUI

Question

I am getting user's current location in my SwiftUI app. To get the latitude and longitude, I am using following code onAppear() of my view:

        let locManager = CLLocationManager()
        locManager.requestWhenInUseAuthorization()
        
        var currentLocation: CLLocation?

        switch locManager.authorizationStatus {
            
        case .notDetermined, .restricted, .denied:
            print("lat long will nil")
       
        case .authorizedAlways, .authorizedWhenInUse:
        
            let lati = currentLocation?.coordinate.latitude
            let long = currentLocation?.coordinate.longitude
                
                print("lat: \(lati) long: \(long)")

        @unknown default:
            print("error getting location")
        }

And this is printing:

lat: nil long: nil

I am not getting why is it not getting the current location. My info.plist is:

Does anyone knows what's the issue?

I got the answer to my question and it is that you have to just add one line in case .authorizedAlways, .authorizedWhenInUse:

currentLocation = locManager.location

The whole code will:

        let locManager = CLLocationManager()
        locManager.requestWhenInUseAuthorization()
        
        var currentLocation: CLLocation?

        switch locManager.authorizationStatus {
            
        case .notDetermined, .restricted, .denied:
            print("lat long will nil")
       
        case .authorizedAlways, .authorizedWhenInUse:
        
            currentLocation = locManager.location

            let lati = currentLocation?.coordinate.latitude
            let long = currentLocation?.coordinate.longitude
                
                print("lat: \(lati) long: \(long)")

        @unknown default:
            print("error getting location")
        }
