Invalid Mutability Exception when using background threads in KMM project on iOS - ios

I am working on a KMM project and am currently developing a model layer. In order to work with data I was planning to create a singleton like so:
#ThreadLocal object Repository {
private var dao: DataAccessObject? = null
private val scope = CoroutineScope(Dispatchers.Main)
fun injectDao(dao: DataAccessObject) {
scope.async {
Repository.dao = dao
}
}
suspend fun create(dataObjectType: TypeOfDataObject): DataObject? {
var dataObject: DataObject? = null
val job = scope.async {
dataObject = dao?.create(dataObjectType = dataObjectType)
}
job.await()
return dataObject
}
}
In such implementation as you see the request to the database is handled in Main thread, which's quite not good. But it works and the data is returned from the function correctly. The next obvious step is to try to run it in background scope. To make it we should just redeclare scope:
private val scope = CoroutineScope(Dispatchers.Default)
When we run the code and call create function from somewhere it falls with

What is strange that the data is written to the db, meaning that dao is called successfully, but data isn't returning from the function, because the exception occurs earlier. At this point I don't understand to what frozen object does the exception relates? What I've tried next is to remove job.await() line and it worked perfectly with no exceptions besides of cause having null in function's output.
So my question is: how to make code run in a background thread still having an ability to wait for its output?

You should include more of the exception info to help figure out what's happening, and you can use ensureNeverFrozen to help identify when something is being inadvertently frozen. However, in this case, I think I can figure it out.
In this case, capturing a reference to dataObject in your background lambda will freeze it. Trying to reassign it is (probably) throwing your exception.
var dataObject: DataObject? = null
val job = scope.async {
//Trying to assign the frozen dataObject will fail
dataObject = dao?.create(dataObjectType = dataObjectType)
}
Since you're already in a suspend function, why not just use something like withContext?
suspend fun create(dataObjectType: TypeOfDataObject): DataObject? {
val dataObject = withContext(Dispatchers.Default) {
dao?.create(dataObjectType = dataObjectType)
}
return dataObject
}
And if you're going that far ...
suspend fun create(dataObjectType: TypeOfDataObject): DataObject? = withContext(Dispatchers.Default) {
dao?.create(dataObjectType = dataObjectType)
}

Ktor httpclient auth feature not working on IOS

I am developing a KMM project and the authentication works well on the Android app. However when I added the Auth feature in the httpclient (located in the shared.commonMain) the ios app failled at runtime with the following message
Function doesn't have or inherit #Throws annotation and thus exception isn't propagated from Kotlin to Objective-C/Swift as NSError.
It is considered unexpected and unhandled instead. Program will be terminated.
This is how I create the httpclient
private val httpclient = HttpClient() {
engine {
pipelining = true
threadsCount = 4
}
install(Logging) {
level = LogLevel.HEADERS
logger = object : Logger {
override fun log(message: String) {
Napier.v(tag = "HTTP Client", message = message)
}
}
}
install(JsonFeature) {
val json = Json { ignoreUnknownKeys = true }
serializer = KotlinxSerializer(json)
}
install(Auth) {
basic {
credentials {
BasicAuthCredentials(username = emailUser, password = passwordUser)
}
}
}
}.also {
initLogger()
}
Here is the complete code of the Greeting class:
class Greeting {
private var emailUser: String = ""
private var passwordUser: String = ""
private val httpclient = HttpClient() {
engine {
pipelining = true
threadsCount = 4
}
install(Logging) {
level = LogLevel.HEADERS
logger = object : Logger {
override fun log(message: String) {
Napier.v(tag = "HTTP Client", message = message)
}
}
}
install(JsonFeature) {
val json = Json { ignoreUnknownKeys = true }
serializer = KotlinxSerializer(json)
}
install(Auth) {
basic {
credentials {
BasicAuthCredentials(username = emailUser, password = passwordUser)
}
}
}
}.also {
initLogger()
}
#Throws(Exception::class)
suspend fun getVaccines(): List<Vaccine> {
return httpclient.get(endpointBase + Vaccine.path)
}
#Throws(Exception::class)
suspend fun loginUser(email: String, password: String): String? {
emailUser = email
passwordUser = password
return httpclient.get(endpointBase + User.path + "/userPage")
}
}

Exact solution:
moved emailUser and passwordUser in commonMain.Platform
expect var emailUser: String
expect var passwordUser: String
androidMain.Platform
actual var emailUser = ""
actual var passwordUser = ""
iosMain.Platform
actual var emailUser: String = AtomicReference("").value
actual var passwordUser: String = AtomicReference("").value
You need to check out how kotlin-native concurrent-mutability works
In short, you can't use any var in your shared code, that may be accessed from different threads. You had to wrap those values with Atomic containers. Replace both emailUser and passwordUser with something like this:
private val emailUser = Atomic("")
private val passwordUser = Atomic("")
Also you can use delegated-properties so you don't need to write .value each time
There's no Atomic declarations for common code, so you have to do you by yourself. In actual for iOS you can use native atomics and for android just make a simple wrapped.
Good news is that this won't stay for long, as JetBrains is planning to change concurrency model soon before KMP release. But for now we had to deal with it.
Ok, for inattentive guys like me I leave a fix for described issue with ktor.
Do not forget to add
dependencies {
implementation("io.ktor:ktor-client-darwin:$ktorVersion")
}
to iosMain section in build.gradle.kts for shared module.
Don't mix it with iosTest for example!
So you will have something like this:
val iosMain by creating {
dependencies {
implementation("io.ktor:ktor-client-darwin:$ktorVersion")
}
dependsOn(commonMain)
iosX64Main.dependsOn(this)
iosArm64Main.dependsOn(this)
iosSimulatorArm64Main.dependsOn(this)
}

AudioKit crash: required condition is false: !destNodeMixerConns.empty() && !isDestNodeConnectedToIONode

We are experiencing an exception in our project:

Examining the common gotchas video I see a similar exception being thrown, required condition is false: !nodeMixerConns.empty() && !hasDirectConnToIONode, which is caused by allowing the variables to go out of scope rather than be retained in the class.
So this occurs when we create an AKPlayer, which is retained in a class, then we create an AKTimePitch with this player which is also retained in that class, and finally assign that to AudioKit.output which triggers the exception. After that we were storing the class that holds onto the player and time pitch in an array, so I tried to move this up after it's created in hopes that was the issue, but I see the same exception.
Interestingly, this code works fine initially when we load up the first song but crashes when we hit the next button to load up the next song.
final class Maestro : NSObject {
static let shared = Maestro()
var audioPlayers = [TrackPlayer]()
func setUpTrackPlayers(fileURL: URL) {
let playerOne = TrackPlayer(url: fileURL)
audioPlayers.append(playerOne)
AudioKit.output = playerOne.handleMixerChain() //boom
do {
try AudioKit.start()
} catch {
print("Maestro AudioKit.start error: \(error)")
}
}
func next() {
for player in audioPlayers {
player.stop()
}
audioPlayers.removeAll()
setUpTrackPlayers(fileURL: newSong.getFileUrl())
}
}
final class TrackPlayer {
let player : AKPlayer
lazy var timePitch = AKTimePitch()
init(url: URL) {
player = AKPlayer(url: url)!
}
func handleMixerChain(pitch: Double = 0.0, tempo: Double = 1.0) -> AKTimePitch {
timePitch = AKTimePitch(player)
timePitch.pitch = pitch
timePitch.rate = tempo
return timePitch
}
}
Any ideas? If you need any more info let me know. May be good to note we are updating from AudioKit 4.5.5 where we didn't experience this crash.
I've opened the project and it seems like you're being a bit too relaxed about your set up / tear down of the signal chain. You're setting up AudioKit's output using local variables, never tearing down this signal chain, and then coming back resetting the AudioKit output and telling AudioKit to start without ever calling AudioKit.stop().

Removing SCNNode nodes from scene.rootNode is causing a crash, in SceneKit

I am trying to remove set of nodes from my scene which represent a path. They are a combination of SCNSphere geometry nodes, and custom geometry representing lines, created using SCNGeometrySource and SCNGeometryElement.
I am not retaining these nodes in any kind of array. Instead, I search the first level of the node tree of the rootNode in the scene for these nodes, by their name, and the subsequent call an action sequence that makes them fade out, and they should remove themselves from the root node.
The code is as follows:
func clearPath() {
//
let disappear = SCNAction.fadeOut(duration: 0.1)
let remove = SCNAction.removeFromParentNode()
let sequence = SCNAction.sequence([disappear, remove])
if let pathNodesToRemove = pathNodes() {
//
for node in pathNodesToRemove {
//
node.removeAllActions()
node.runAction(sequence)
}
}
if let lineNodesToRemove = lineNodes() {
for node in lineNodesToRemove {
//
node.removeAllActions()
node.runAction(sequence)
}
}
path.removeAll()
}
where:
func pathNodes() -> [SCNNode]? {
//
...
let nodes = rootNode.childNodes.filter { (node) -> Bool in
//
guard let name = node.name else { return false }
if name.hasPrefix(configurationComponent.id) &&
name.range(of:"_PATH") != nil {
return true
} else {
return false
}
}
return nodes
}
The lineNodes() function is basically the same.
I switched on Zombie Objects to trace where the error is coming from, and I always get the same error: a reference to SceneKit`C3DNodeRemoveFromParentNode as the last thing to call on the thread, and a EXC_BAD_ACCESS (code=1, address... ).
The clearPath() function is the only place in the entire app that I am calling 'RemoveFromParentNode'.
The nodes don't have physics bodies on them and are not being retained anywhere elsewhere.
Any thoughts as to how to resolve this?
EDIT 28/4/18:
Here is a crash report of the thread where it occurs. It would appear that removeObjectFromChildNodesAtIndex is being called twice...

EDIT 30/04/18
I continued to add other features to the app, where I needed to remove nodes using SCNAction.removeFromParentNode(). I isolated those as well to cause the problem independently of the above code.
These are called more frequently on the SCNRendererDelegate update as each new nodes are generated.
I also tried to use removeFromParentNode() directly on the node using SCNAction.run block, and the same issue occurs.
When you use SCNAction.removeFromParentNode() you aren't removing the node, you have to remove the node it's self. If you remove the path or action you are essentially make a value nil so when the path or action is called there is now a nil value and it crashes.

libc++abi.dylib: terminating with uncaught exception of type NSException
Did someone get the similar crash?
Thanks
I had the same crash and did some research today and found this:
http://www.openradar.me/28301343
It looks Apple fixed the issue in iOS 10.2. just thought it may help you!
Yes I just got the same exact crash. It happened in a background thread and it seems to have to do with making a URL session network request. I wonder if it's some sort of multithreading bug having to do with the fact that I'm making two network requests at the same time. I'm using Alamofire as well but not sure if the bug lies in Alamofire or in Apple's code. I've been unable to reproduce it as of now. Maybe you can figure out how to reproduce it and then file an issue in Apple's bug radar or in the Alamofire GitHub repo.
This is a bug in Apple's NSURLSessionTaskMetrics code and happens during a network request when the user's clock gets moved far enough backwards that the request start timestamp is after the request end timestamp. This is reproducible using a network debugging proxy and manually adjusting the clock, and only occurs from iOS 10.0 up to but not including iOS 10.2
If you're using Alamofire, and you don't need NSURLSessionTaskMetrics, you can work around this by using a custom SessionDelegate for your SessionManager and overriding the responds(to aSelector..) function e.g:
class MySessionDelegate: Alamofire.SessionDelegate {
override public func responds(to aSelector: Selector) -> Bool {
let result: Bool = super.responds(to: aSelector)
if #available(iOS 10.2, *) {
// NSURLSessionTaskMetrics date crash is fixed
return result
} else if #available(iOS 10.0, *) {
// NSURLSessionTaskMetrics date crash is not fixed, turn off metric collection
if aSelector == #selector(self.urlSession(_:task:didFinishCollecting:)) {
return false
} else {
return result
}
} else {
// NSURLSessionTaskMetrics doesn't exist
return result
}
}
}
If you're using the default SessionManager (e.g. calling Alamofire.request(...)) you can create your own SessionManager instead in order to use your custom SessionDelegate:
let sessionManager: Alamofire.SessionManager = {
let configuration: URLSessionConfiguration = URLSessionConfiguration.default
configuration.httpAdditionalHeaders = SessionManager.defaultHTTPHeaders
return Alamofire.SessionManager(configuration: configuration, delegate: MySessionDelegate(), serverTrustPolicyManager: nil)
}()
And now instead of calling Alamofire.request(...) you'd call sessionManager.request(...)
I have been struggling with this problem in an os x application for the last few months and have found a workaround.
Background:
Like the OP am using Alamofire to request JSON data via a Timer to send requests several times per second. The data comes in as expected however I get random crashes at irregular intervals with the same message as the OP i.e. Start date cannot be later in time than end date! etc etc.
Solution:
Rather than send Alamofire requests at a regular interval I added some logic which checks for a return of the previous request before sending the next one. This completely eliminated the random crashes.
Hope it helps :)

Realm object has been deleted or invalidated

When I start my app, I perform an API call to see whether there's new data available. The data is stored in my local Realm database, and some of it is displayed in the initial table view controller.
Once the API call is finished, I check if some conditions are met that require me to delete a bunch of the previous data from the database and then create new objects. However, when I delete the old data, my app crashes with the following exception:
2015-08-06 11:56:32.057 MSUapp[19754:172864] *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'RLMException', reason: 'Object has been deleted or invalidated.'

libc++abi.dylib: terminating with uncaught exception of type NSException
This call stack lets me assume, that it's because of my write access in FavoriteLeaguesViewController's generateLeagueList method. The following is its body:
var favorites = FavoritesHelper.sharedInstance.favoriteLeagues
favorites.sort { $0.sport < $1.sport }
for favorite in favorites {
// Add to array, which we can later use for cellForRowAtIndexPath
}
favorites is of the type [League], where League is a Realm Object. I'd assume the exception occurs because I'm accessing properties of the League objects, which have been deleted from the Realm database in the mean time (because the API call that has been started in the AppDelegate is now finished).
My question then is: How can I prevent this from happening? How can I make sure that there's no more writing/reading-access to any of the League objects prior to deleting them?
You can check if an object has been deleted from the Realm by calling object.invalidated -- if it returns true, then it has been deleted or the Realm has manually invalidated.
I got a really nice way to catch a RLMException within Swift.
Currently Swift doesn't show where a RLMException happened.
In Realm/RLMUtil.mm:266, there is the definition for RLMException.
If you change the code to generate a swift error,
Xcode now can show you where the exception occurred.
Now it is a part of Swift.
// Realm/RLMUtil.mm:266
static NSException *RLMException(NSString *reason, NSDictionary *additionalUserInfo) {
// add some code to generate a swift error. E.g. division-by-zero.
int a = 0;
if (reason == nil) {
a = 1;
}
NSLog(#"calculating 1 / %d = %f", a, 1 / a);
... remainder of the original code...
}
I've just place breakpoint inside method:
// Realm/RLMUtil.mm:193
static NSException *RLMException(NSString *reason, NSDictionary *additionalUserInfo) {
// ...
}
And on left panel you can check stack trace, here you can find where error throws.
The issue was in my FavoritesHelper class. It had both a favoriteLeagueIDs and favoriteLeagues property. I always set both of them and used the IDs for internal usage and the other property for whenever I want some data from these leagues.
This meant, that all favorite leagues were constantly referenced by the favoriteLeagues property (of the type [League]), thus crashing the app when I wanted to fetch them after they're invalidated.
What I've done to fix this, was to change the property favoriteLeagues to a computed property as follows:
var favoriteLeagues: [League] {
get {
var leagues = [League]()
for id in favoriteLeagueIDs {
if let league = realm.objectForPrimaryKey(League.self, key: id) {
leagues.append(league)
}
}
return leagues
}
}
Now the leagues are no longer referenced and just get loaded from the database when I need to read them. Invalidated or deleted objects don't get loaded because of the if let statement (the Realm.objectForPrimaryKey(:key:) method returns nil in such a case).
I was unable to place breakpoints within the Realm framework itself as others suggested, but instead placed an exception breakpoint on my entire project:
This allowed me to catch a proper stack trace when the exception was thrown, and find my bug.
you can calling isInvalidated or invalidated to judge the object is invalid (YES) or not (NO).
you can also write a a custom method to define what is real invalidate
look for the document ,we will see a property:
/**
Indicates if the object can no longer be accessed because it is now invalid.
An object can no longer be accessed if the object has been deleted from the Realm that manages it, or
if `invalidate` is called on that Realm.
*/
#property (nonatomic, readonly, getter = isInvalidated) BOOL invalidated;
the invalidated is readonly but what does isInvalidated mean?
it is equals to - (BOOL)invalidated { return invalidated; }
it means that you can write a a custom method to define what is real invalidate you want.
Try to create the element on realm instead of add
So:
try! realm.write {
realm.add(...)
}
Replace with:
try! realm.write {
realm.create(...)
}
And then after the delete operation realm should work as expected!
In my experience, if you trying to use target object (which you wanna delete) after delete, application will crash.
If you wanna trigger some code blocks after removing realm object, just trying to trigger that block right before the object removing in the memory. Trying to usage that object after removed from memory, will make some problem and will crash the app.
For example:
try! realm.write {
print("deleted word: \(targetObject.word)")
realm.delete(targetObject)
// targetObject was removed, so don't try to access it otherwise you gonna got the 'nil' value instead of object.
}
after spent a day, i figure out with the remove DispatchQueue.main.async in my realm.delete() function and finally it worked.
DispatchQueue.main.async {
realm.delete()
}
to
realm.delete()
In my case I was deleting data from 2 tables at once.. one with a foreign to the other.
let itemToDelete = counters[indexPath.row]
let realm = try! Realm()
try! realm.write {
realm.delete(itemToDelete)
let predicate = NSPredicate(format: "counterid = \(c.id)")
let children = realm.objects(Details.self).filter(predicate)
realm.delete(children)
}
But the problem was that I was trying to delete the children of the item that does not exist anymore. Switching the order, solved it!
let itemToDelete = counters[indexPath.row]
let realm = try! Realm()
try! realm.write {
let predicate = NSPredicate(format: "counterid = \(c.id)")
let children = realm.objects(Details.self).filter(predicate)
realm.delete(children)
realm.delete(itemToDelete) //this should be deleted after
}
Hope this helps someone else!
Here are some of the reasons based on my past experiences.
Overriding NSObject's isEqual(_ object: Any?), then returning identifier which was just deleted by Realm.
How did I fix it?
Check if object is invalidated if so return false otherwise proceed with using your identifier
Example:
extension YourModel {
override func isEqual(_ object: Any?) -> Bool {
guard let object = object as? YourModel,
!self.isInvalidated else {
return false
}
return object.id == self.id
}
}
Using Diffing tools
For those using diffing tools like RxDataSources, IGListKit etc.. you have to perform the same check as mentioned above before trying to access the indentifier.
Here is a work round if you are using RxDataSources that prevent the crash caused by adopting to IdentifiableType protocol.
Check if the Realm object was invalidated. If so, just return a random unique value, like so:
var identity: String {
return isInvalidated ? "deleted-object-\(UUID().uuidString)" : objectId
}
Source: - https://github.com/RxSwiftCommunity/RxDataSources/issues/172#issuecomment-427675816
What you can do is observe the Results<> object returned from your initial Realm query (the one used to populate your list/table view) and update that list in the observer callback method whenever there is a change in the database.
Just make sure that you use the same Realm instance to delete/modify the object as the one used for the initial query.
EDIT:
Some code examples:
let realm = Realm()
let results = realm.objects(Favourite.self)
let notificationToken = results.observe { [weak self] (changes) in
guard let tableView = self?.tableView else { return }
tableView.reloadData()
}
// Somewhere else
try? realm.write {
if let favourite = results.first {
realm.delete(favourite)
}
}
// OR
if let objectRealm = results.first?.realm {
try? objectRealm.write {
objectRealm.delete(results.first!)
}
}
// Don't forget to stop observing in deinit{}
// notificationToken.invalidate()
You can also use the #ObservedRealmObject or #ObservedResults property wrapper, you implicitly open a realm and retrieve the specified objects or results. You can then pass those objects to a view further down the hierarchy.
And use the .onDelete(perform: ) method. In example: .onDelete(perform: $dogs.remove) see below:
(SwiftUI)
struct DogsView: View {
#ObservedResults(Dog.self) var dogs
/// The button to be displayed on the top left.
var leadingBarButton: AnyView?
var body: some View {
NavigationView {
VStack {
// The list shows the dogs in the realm.
// The ``#ObservedResults`` above implicitly opens a realm and retrieves
// all the Dog objects. We can then pass those objects to views further down the
// hierarchy.
List {
ForEach(dogs) { dog in
DogRow(dog: dog)
}.onDelete(perform: $dogs.remove) **//<- Deletion of the Object**
}.listStyle(GroupedListStyle())
.navigationBarTitle("Dogs", displayMode: .large)
.navigationBarBackButtonHidden(true)
.navigationBarItems(
leading: self.leadingBarButton,
// Edit button on the right to enable rearranging items
trailing: EditButton())
}.padding()
}
}
}
