I have a class CommentView that has an optional closure (for simplification purposes, I’ve cut down the code to its bare basics to make it easy for the reader):

struct CommentView: View
{
    @State var enterButtonPushed: ((Comment)  -> Void)?

    init(enterButtonPushed: @escaping (Comment) -> Void)
    {
        self.enterButtonPushed = enterButtonPushed
    }
    
    var body: some View
    {
        Button("Enter")
        {
            if let enterButtonPushed = self.enterButtonPushed
            {
                enterButtonPushed(Comment())
            }
            else
            {
               print("EnterButtonPushed is nil")
            }
        }
        .buttonStyle(.borderedProminent)
    }
}

A CommentView class is created correctly from another class:

    CommentView 
    {
        comment in self.reader.comments.append(comment)
    }

When I push the enter button, the print statement is indicating that the closure is nil, even though I clearly initialized it with a value. What is the correct way syntactically to declare, instantiate and unwrap an optional closure?
