[PHCollectionList canContainCustomKeyAssets]: unrecognized selector sent to instance - ios

Question

Fetching PHAssets is now crashing for me on latest versions of iOS (iOS 9.2 and iOS 9.3). It previously worked fine.
The error I am getting is:
[PHCollectionList canContainCustomKeyAssets]: unrecognized selector sent to instance
Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException'
The line throwing the exception is:
PHFetchResult *fetchImage = [PHAsset fetchKeyAssetsInAssetCollection:(PHAssetCollection*)collection options:fetchOptions];
Here is more code, for reference:
Class PHPhotoLibrary_class = NSClassFromString(#"PHPhotoLibrary");
if (PHPhotoLibrary_class) {
PHFetchResult *fetchResult = self.collectionsFetchResults[indexPath.section];
PHCollection *collection = fetchResult[indexPath.row];
cell.textLabel.text = collection.localizedTitle;
PHFetchOptions *fetchOptions = [[PHFetchOptions alloc] init];
fetchOptions.sortDescriptors = #[[NSSortDescriptor sortDescriptorWithKey:#"creationDate" ascending:YES]];
PHFetchResult *fetchImage = [PHAsset fetchKeyAssetsInAssetCollection:(PHAssetCollection*)collection options:fetchOptions];
PHAsset *asset = [fetchImage firstObject];
PHImageRequestOptions *options = [[PHImageRequestOptions alloc] init];
options.resizeMode = PHImageRequestOptionsResizeModeExact;
CGFloat scale = [UIScreen mainScreen].scale;
CGFloat dimension = 90.0;
CGSize size = CGSizeMake(dimension*scale, dimension*scale);
[[PHImageManager defaultManager] requestImageForAsset:asset
targetSize:size
contentMode:PHImageContentModeAspectFill
options:options
resultHandler:^(UIImage *result, NSDictionary *info) {
if (result) {
CGSize itemSize = CGSizeMake(60, 60);
UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(itemSize, NO, 2);
CGRect imageRect = CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, itemSize.width, itemSize.height);
[result drawInRect:imageRect];
cell.imageView.image = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
UIGraphicsEndImageContext();
}
else{
UIImage *placeholder = [UIImage imageNamed:#"image-placeholder.jpg"];
CGSize itemSize = CGSizeMake(60, 60);
UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(itemSize, NO, 2);
CGRect imageRect = CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, itemSize.width, itemSize.height);
[placeholder drawInRect:imageRect];
cell.imageView.image = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
UIGraphicsEndImageContext();
}
}];
}

Answer 1

This issue actually lies here:
PHCollection *collection = fetchResult[indexPath.row];
and then here:
PHAsset *asset = [fetchImage firstObject];
You are fetching the collection using PHCollection and then just assuming all assets are PHAssets without properly checking if this is the case or not.
Actually, PHCollection has two possible subclasses: PHAsset and PHCollectionList, and the PHCollectionList is what is throwing the error here.
Wrap the code after PHCollection *collection = fetchResult[indexPath.row]; with a check for PHAsset, and it should solve the issue:
if ([collection isKindOfClass:[PHAssetCollection class]]) {
//code
}

Answer 2

First, get all assets using PHAsset like
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
AllPhotos=[[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
PHFetchResult *result = [PHAsset fetchAssetsWithMediaType:PHAssetMediaTypeImage options:nil];
for (PHAsset *asset in result)
{
[AllPhotos addObject:asset];
}
[self.collectionView reloadData];
// code here
});
Not, use the collectionview delegate method like
PHImageManager *manager = [PHImageManager defaultManager];
PHAsset *asset = [AllPhotos objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
PHImageRequestOptions *requestOptions = [[PHImageRequestOptions alloc] init];
requestOptions.resizeMode = PHImageRequestOptionsResizeModeExact;
requestOptions.deliveryMode = PHImageRequestOptionsDeliveryModeOpportunistic;
requestOptions.synchronous = false;
//CGFloat scale = 1.5; //or an even smaller one
if (!manager)
{
manager = [[PHCachingImageManager alloc] init];
}
if (!requestOptions)
{
requestOptions = [[PHImageRequestOptions alloc] init];
}
[manager requestImageForAsset:asset
targetSize:CGSizeMake(imagesize.width,imagesize.height)
contentMode:PHImageContentModeAspectFill
options:requestOptions
resultHandler:^void(UIImage *image, NSDictionary *info)
{
[imageview setImage:image];
}];
[cell.contentView addSubview:imageview];
