Thread1:EXC_BAD_ACCESS(code=1, address = 0X48) - ios

Question

I'm new in Swift. I am trying to Run this code but got an error:
Thread 1: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (code=1, address=0x48) a.
Error appears here:
self.player.play()
Can anyone help in this issue?
import UIKit
import AVFoundation
class ViewController: UIViewController {
var player = AVAudioPlayer()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
do {
if let audioPath = Bundle.main.path(forResource: "music", ofType: "mp3") {
try player = AVAudioPlayer(contentsOf: URL(fileURLWithPath: audioPath))
}
} catch {
print("ERROR")
}
self.player.play()
}

Answer 1

What you doing with your code is:
Creating an instance of AVAudioPlayer without any data
Trying to create a new instance with some data from music.mp3 file
Playing it
If the audioPath is not correct, then the player is not correctly created: application will use the one without valid data, leading to a crash during playback.
Your code can be written making the player optional, which helps preventing the crash:
import UIKit
import AVFoundation
class ViewController: UIViewController {
var player: AVAudioPlayer?
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
player = initializePlayer()
player?.play()
}
private func initializePlayer() -> AVAudioPlayer? {
guard let path = Bundle.main.path(forResource: "music", ofType: "mp3") else {
return nil
}
return try? AVAudioPlayer(contentsOf: URL(fileURLWithPath: path))
}
}
Some changes performed to the code:
player is now optional: there is no need to initialize it twice. Plus if the initialization goes well you can use it without problems, otherwise your app won't crash.
The play method is now in an optional chain
I've moved the initialization of the player in a separate private methods, to maintain the code readable. Feel free to change it, it is just a suggestion.

I've got it. The issue is that the file isn't being coping to my app bundle. To fix it:
Click your project
Click your target
Select Build Phases
Expand Copy Bundle Resources
Click '+' and select your file.
