My Application is getting crashed with the following error.
-[PreviewViewController applicationWillSuspend]: message sent to deallocated instance 0x1806d9e0
My application have two view controllers one is HomeViewController and other one is PreviewViewController.
In home view controller i am displaying a table view. When selecting the row of table view i am presenting the preview view controller.
I selected one row then preview view controller is presented.
PreviewViewController *previewController = [[PreviewViewController alloc]initWithPreviewImage:[[kfxKEDImage alloc] initWithImage:imgCaptured] withSourceofCapture:_typeOfCapture typeOfDocumentCaptured:PHOTO];
[self presentViewController:previewController animated:YES completion:nil];
Dismissed the preview view controller.
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
Application goes into background then it is not crashed.
I selected two rows one after another. Application goes into background then it is crashed. I don't know why it is behaving like that. If anyone know the solution please tell me.
Thanks In Advance
I had this problem, it was caused by someone overriding 'dealloc' in a UIViewController category.
https://github.com/taphuochai/PHAirViewController/issues/13
#chrishulbert
Remove this:
- (void)dealloc
{
self.phSwipeHander = nil;
}
Replace dealloc with this:
/// This is so that phSwipeGestureRecognizer doesn't create a swipe gesture in *every* vc's dealloc.
- (BOOL)phSwipeGestureRecognizerExists {
return objc_getAssociatedObject(self, SwipeObject) ? YES : NO;
}
- (void)ph_dealloc
{
if (self.phSwipeGestureRecognizerExists) {
self.phSwipeHander = nil;
}
[self ph_dealloc]; // This calls the original dealloc.
}
/// Swizzle the method into place.
void PH_MethodSwizzle(Class c, SEL origSEL, SEL overrideSEL) {
Method origMethod = class_getInstanceMethod(c, origSEL);
Method overrideMethod = class_getInstanceMethod(c, overrideSEL);
if (class_addMethod(c, origSEL, method_getImplementation(overrideMethod), method_getTypeEncoding(overrideMethod))) {
class_replaceMethod(c, overrideSEL, method_getImplementation(origMethod), method_getTypeEncoding(origMethod));
} else {
method_exchangeImplementations(origMethod, overrideMethod);
}
}
/// Swizzle dealloc at load time.
+ (void)load {
SEL deallocSelector = NSSelectorFromString(#"dealloc"); // Because ARC won't allow #selector(dealloc).
PH_MethodSwizzle(self, deallocSelector, #selector(ph_dealloc));
}

I have two ViewControllers. Let's call them no1 and no2. In no2 I have PopoverViewController with some options and instance of NSTimer. Timer function is calling popToViewController 3 seconds after popup is presented if nothing is clicked in the popover, which is returning user to no1 ViewController. Problem is when this function is triggered, screen is changed to the no1, but application crashes without error message below.
PopoverViewController doesn't have delegate and it is registered as property of second VC as:
#property (nonatomic)UIPopoverController *optionsPopover;
Does anyone have any idea why there is no crash report available? And if there is no reference to the popover why it is crashing?
Implementation in viewWillDisappear looks like this:
if([_optionsPopover isPopoverVisible]){
[_optionsPopover dismissPopoverAnimated:NO];
_optionsPopover = nil;
}
I tried forcing UI to update on main thread (below code), but the result is the same. Crash still exists.
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
if([_optionsPopover isPopoverVisible]){
[_optionsPopover dismissPopoverAnimated:NO];
_optionsPopover = nil;
}
});
Please try to make strong reference of UIPopoverController
#property (nonatomic,retain)UIPopoverController *optionsPopover;
call below method in - (void)viewDidDisappear:(BOOL)animated instead of viewwilldisappear -
- (void)viewDidDisappear:(BOOL)animated {
if([_optionsPopover isPopoverVisible]){
[_optionsPopover dismissPopoverAnimated:NO];
_optionsPopover = nil;
}
}
Set the property as strong :
#property (strong, nonatomic) UIPopoverController *_optionsPopover;
Remove this line of code :
_optionsPopover = nil;
You are setting _optionsPopover to nil after dismiss..
Edit
Possible problem: timer not invalidated after viewController is dismissed,
if([_optionsPopover isPopoverVisible])
{
[yourTime invalidate]; // added on edit
[_optionsPopover dismissPopoverAnimated:NO];
}
Try: [_optionsPopover dismissPopoverAnimated:NO]; alone, because dismissing it will basically makes it nil..
I want to check the pasteboard and show an alert if it contains specific values when the view appears. I can place the code into viewDidLoad to ensure it's only invoked once, but the problem is that the alert view shows too quickly. I know I can set a timer to defer the alert's appearance, but it's not a good work-around I think.
I checked the question iOS 7 - Difference between viewDidLoad and viewDidAppear and found that there is one step for checking whether the view exists. So I wonder if there's any api for doing this?
Update: The "only once" means the lifetime of the view controller instance.
There is a standard, built-in method you can use for this.
Objective-C:
- (void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated {
[super viewDidAppear:animated];
if ([self isBeingPresented] || [self isMovingToParentViewController]) {
// Perform an action that will only be done once
}
}
Swift 3:
override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
super.viewDidAppear(animated)
if self.isBeingPresented || self.isMovingToParentViewController {
// Perform an action that will only be done once
}
}
The call to isBeingPresented is true when a view controller is first being shown as a result of being shown modally. isMovingToParentViewController is true when a view controller is first being pushed onto the navigation stack. One of the two will be true the first time the view controller appears.
No need to deal with BOOL ivars or any other trick to track the first call.
rmaddy's answers is really good but it does not solve the problem when the view controller is the root view controller of a navigation controller and all other containers that do not pass these flags to its child view controller.
So such situations i find best to use a flag and consume it later on.
#interface SomeViewController()
{
BOOL isfirstAppeareanceExecutionDone;
}
#end
#implementation SomeViewController
-(void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated {
[super viewDidAppear:animated];
if(isfirstAppeareanceExecutionDone == NO) {
// Do your stuff
isfirstAppeareanceExecutionDone = YES;
}
}
#end
If I understand your question correctly, you can simply set a BOOL variable to recognize that viewDidAppear has already been called, ex:
- (void)viewDidAppear {
if (!self.viewHasBeenSet) { // <-- BOOL default value equals NO
// Perform whatever code you'd like to perform
// the first time viewDidAppear is called
self.viewHasBeenSet = YES;
}
}
This solution will call viewDidAppear only once throughout the life cycle of the app even if you create the multiple object of the view controller this won't be called after one time. Please refer to the rmaddy's answer above
You can either perform selector in viewDidLoad or you can use dispatch_once_t in you viewDidAppear. If you find a better solution then please do share with me. This is how I do the stuff.
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
[self performSelector:#selector(myMethod) withObject:nil afterDelay:2.0];
}
- (void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated {
[super viewDidAppear:animated];
static dispatch_once_t once;
dispatch_once(&once, ^{
//your stuff
[self myMethod];
});
}
By reading other comments (and based on #rmaddy 's answer), I know this is not what OP asked for, but for those who come here because of title of the question:
extension UIViewController {
var isPresentingForFirstTime: Bool {
return isBeingPresented() || isMovingToParentViewController()
}
}
UPDATE
You should use this method in viewDidAppear and viewWillAppear. (thanks to #rmaddy)
UPDATE 2
This method only works with modally presented view controllers and pushed view controllers. it's not working with a childViewController. using didMoveToParentViewController would be better with childViewControllers.
You shouldn't have issues in nested view controllers with this check
extension UIViewController {
var isPresentingForFirstTime: Bool {
if let parent = parent {
return parent.isPresentingForFirstTime
}
return isBeingPresented || isMovingFromParent
}
}
Try to set a BOOL value, when the situation happens call it.
#interface AViewController : UIViewController
#property(nonatomic) BOOL doSomeStuff;
#end
#implementation AViewController
- (void) viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
if(doSomeStuff)
{
[self doSomeStuff];
doSomeStuff = NO;
}
}
in somewhere you init AViewController instance:
AddEventViewController *ad = [AddEventViewController new];
ad.doSomeStuff = YES;
Not sure why you do this in ViewDidAppear? But if you want doSomeStuff is private and soSomeStuff was called only once, here is another solution by notification:
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:#selector(doSomeStuff) name:#"do_some_stuff" object:nil];
- (void) doSomeStuff
{}
Then post when somewhere:
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] postNotificationName:#"do_some_stuff" object:nil];
swift 5
I've tried isBeingPresented() or isMovingToParent.
But It doesn't work.
So I tried below code. and It's work for me!
override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
if (self.isViewLoaded) {
// run only once
}
}
You can use this function in ViewDidLoad method
performSelector:withObject:afterDelay:
it will call that function after delay. so you don't have to use any custom timer object.
and For once you can use
dispatch_once DCD block.Just performSelector in the dispatch_once block it will call performSelector only once when ViewDidLoad is called
Hope it helps
When I give a good swipe to my tableView and press the "Back" button before the tableView ended it's scrolling, my app crashes. I've tried the following:
- (void) closeViewController
{
[self killScroll];
[self.navigationController popToRootViewControllerAnimated:YES];
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
}
- (void)killScroll
{
CGPoint offset = sellersTableView.contentOffset;
[sellersTableView setContentOffset:offset animated:NO];
}
That didn't work, same crash. I don't see why, the error I'm getting is the following:
*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInternalInconsistencyException', reason: 'UITableView dataSource must return a cell from tableView:cellForRowAtIndexPath:'
So that means that the tableView is still requesting a cell when everything is already being deallocated. Makes no sense.
Then I tried this:
- (void) closeViewController
{
[self.navigationController popToRootViewControllerAnimated:YES];
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
}
- (void)dealloc
{
sellersTableView.dataSource = nil;
sellersTableView.delegate = nil;
sellersTableView = nil;
}
Gives me the same error. Any ideas?
Update:
My delegate methods
creation
if (textField == addSellerTextField) {
sellersTableView = [[UITableView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(addSellerTextField.frame.origin.x + addSellerTextField.frame.size.width + 10, addSellerTextField.frame.origin.y - [self heightForTableView] + 35, 200, [self heightForTableView])];
sellersTableView.delegate = self;
sellersTableView.dataSource = self;
sellersTableView.backgroundColor = [[UIColor grayColor] colorWithAlphaComponent:0.05];
sellersTableView.separatorColor = [[UIColor grayColor] colorWithAlphaComponent:0.15];
sellersTableView.rowHeight = 44;
sellersTableView.layer.opacity = 0;
[self.companyView addSubview:sellersTableView];
[UIView animateWithDuration:0.3 delay:0 options:UIViewAnimationOptionCurveEaseIn animations:^{sellersTableView.layer.opacity = 1;} completion:nil];
}
cellForRowAtIndexPath
if (tableView == sellersTableView) {
if (!cell) {
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
}
cell.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
if ([sellersArray count] > 0) {
cell.textLabel.text = [sellersArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
} else {
UILabel *noSellersYetLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, sellersTableView.frame.size.width, [self heightForTableView])];
noSellersYetLabel.text = #"no sellers yet";
noSellersYetLabel.textAlignment = NSTextAlignmentCenter;
noSellersYetLabel.textColor = [UIColor grayColor];
[cell addSubview:noSellersYetLabel];
sellersTableView.separatorStyle = UITableViewCellSeparatorStyleNone;
}
}
removing
- (void) textFieldDidEndEditing:(UITextField *)textField
{
if (textField == addSellerTextField) {
[self updateSellers:textField];
}
}
- (void)updateSellers:(UITextField *)textField
{
[textField resignFirstResponder];
[self hideSellersTableView];
}
- (void)hideSellersTableView
{
[UIView animateWithDuration:0.3 delay:0 options:UIViewAnimationOptionCurveEaseIn animations:^{sellersTableView.layer.opacity = 0;} completion:nil];
sellersTableView.dataSource = nil;
sellersTableView.delegate = nil;
[sellersTableView removeFromSuperview];
sellersTableView = nil;
}
Solution
So apparently putting the dataSource = nil and delegate = nil into textFieldDidEndEditing fixed the problem. Thanks everybody for the answers!
It's strange behaviour of UITableView. The easiest way to resolve this issue just set the dataSource and delegate property of UITAbleView to nil before you make a call of function popToRootViewControllerAnimated. Furthermore you can use more common solution and add the code that set the properties to nil into the -dealloc method. In addition you no need the -killScroll method.
After a short research I have realized what the problem is. This unusual behaviour appeared in iOS 7. The scroll view retained by its superview may send message to delegate after the delegate is released. It happens due to -removeFromSuperview implementation UIScrollView triggers -setContentOffset: and, eventually, send message to delegate.
Just add following lines at the beginning of dealloc method:
sellersTableView.delegate = nil;
sellersTableView.dataSource = nil;
No need to use hacks like your killScroll method.
Also, I can't see why you want to call both popToRootViewController and dismissViewController.
If you dismiss a view controller which is embedded in a navigation controller, navigation controller itself as well as all contained view controllers will be released.
In your case you'll have just weird animation.
setContentOffset method won't help you, try to set
sellersTableView.dataSource = nil;
somewhere in your viewWillDisappear method.
This is not a good practice of course.
Change you closeViewController like below and see if works
(void) closeViewController
{
sellersTableView.dataSource = nil;
sellersTableView.delegate = nil;
[self.navigationController popToRootViewControllerAnimated:YES];
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
}
I don't think that setting the tableView (or it's delegate) to nil is the issue. You should be able to perform both dismissViewControllerAnimated or popToRootViewController individually without having to modify the tableView in this way.
So the issue is most likely due to calling both of these methods at the same time (and with animated = YES), and in doing so asking your viewController setup to do something unnatural.
Looks like upon tapping a "close" button you are both popping to a rootViewController of a UINavigationController, as well as dismissing a modal viewController.
In doing so, you're dismissing a modal viewController which is likely presented by the topViewController of the navigationController (so top vc is holding a reference to modal vc). AND you're trying to kill the top vc via the popToRootViewController method call. And you're doing both of these things using animated = YES, which means they take some time to complete, and you can't be sure when each finishes (ie you can't be sure when dealloc will be called).
Depending on your needs you could do one of several things.
Consider adding a delegate property to your modal vc. Dismiss the modal vc, and in the completionBlock of the modal vc tell its delegate that it's finished dismissing. At that point call popToRootViewController (because at this point you can be sure that the modal is gone and scrolling wasn't interrupted).
If it's your navController that's been presented modally, then do this in the opposite order. Notifying the delegate that the pop operation has completed, and do the modal dismissal then.
I created a method that sets the title of a button based on a value.
This method needs to be called when opening the viewController and maybe refreshed when the controller appears again.
So i created the method and I called that method in viewDidLoad and viewDidApper but it seems to be called only when I change page and turn back to the view controller.
Why?
My code is
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
// Do any additional setup after loading the view.
[self controlloRichieste];
......
}
-(void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated{
[self controlloRichieste];
}
-(void)controlloRichieste{
//Numero richieste di contatto
NSString *numeroRichieste = #"1";
if([numeroRichieste isEqual:#"0"]){
[_labelRequestNumber setTitle:#"Nessuna" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
} else {
_labelRequestNumber.titleLabel.text = numeroRichieste;
_labelRequestNumber.tintColor = [UIColor redColor];
}
//Fine Numero richieste di contatto
}
You can also move that code to viewWillAppear so that it gets called each time it appears.
- (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated {
[super viewWillAppear:animated];
[self controlloRichieste];
}
I see the problem now, try the other way around
-(void)controlloRichieste{
//Numero richieste di contatto
NSString *numeroRichieste = #"1";
if([numeroRichieste isEqual:#"0"]){
[_labelRequestNumber setTitle:#"Nessuna" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
} else {
_labelRequestNumber.tintColor = [UIColor redColor];
[[_labelRequestNumber titleLabel]setText:numeroRichieste];
}
//Fine Numero richieste di contatto
}
Change set the button color, before you change its titleLabel's text
I created a demo PROJECT for you, hope it's helpful!
When you open view first time the viewDidLoad is called and the viewDidAppeare.
The viewDidAppeare is called every time when the view is opened, when you push or present other view controller and go back to the maine one viewDidAppeare is called.
You should call:
[super viewDidAppear:animated];
The viewDidLoad is called just when the view is loaded and after that when it's deallocated and it needs to be allocated again. So mostly when you push or present other view controller and go back to the maine one viewDidLoad is not called.
I have a ECSSlidingViewController with a menu in the underLeftViewController that has a few different buttons that lead to different segues to display different UIViewControllers in the ECSSlidingViewController.topViewController. All the buttons on the menu work well and segue to the appropriate view controller.
However, I would like to be able to perform one of the segues from another UIViewController other than the ECSSlidingViewController.underLeftViewController and whenever I try to do this I get an EXC_BAD_ACCESS(1) error. In my logs the following information shows up.
Warning: Attempt to dismiss from view controller : 0xc061250> while a presentation or dismiss is in progress!
