iOS error: [__NSArrayI objectAtIndex:]: index 1 beyond bounds [0 .. 0] - ios

Question

In my application I try to load contents from a url, store them in a mutable array and show them in a table view. But I can't get it working, because every time I run the app this error appears:
*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSRangeException',
reason: '*** -[__NSArrayI objectAtIndex:]: index 1 beyond bounds [0 .. 0]'
*** First throw call stack:

I create the array that should populate the table in my viewDidLoad with:
_videos = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
Then I connect to the url and parse through the received xml data. This works just like it should. When a certain tag is opened I create my video objects and after filling them with data I add those objects to my array with:
[_videos addObject:currentVideo];
This seems to work as well, because it returns the correct number of videos when
- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section {
return _videos.count;
}
is called. But after this point the app crashes and I don't even reach the point where I try to populate my table view. The function looks like this:
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
Video *curVideo = [_videos objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
static NSString *CellIdentifier = #"CustomCell";
CustomCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil)
cell = [[CustomCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleSubtitle reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
cell.titleLabel.text = [curVideo title];
cell.descLabel.text = [curVideo desc];
return cell;
}
What am doing wrong?
Thanks in advance

Answer 1

I had the same error signature -[__NSArrayI objectAtIndex:]: index 4 beyond bounds [0 .. 1]' when attempting to present a modal Storyboard, table view with two (updated from five) static table cell sections. This error didn't come up until I removed three table cell sections I no longer needed in the view. After checking all my objectAtIndex references preceding the modal presentation at length for two days, I decided to look at the UITableViewController subclass code itself. I found this:
- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInTableView:(UITableView *)tableView
{
//#warning Potentially incomplete method implementation.
// Return the number of sections.
return 5;
}
Then the lightbulb went off. The index 4 being referred to related to my table view number of sections and the bound of [0 .. 1] referred to my current two table cell sections. Updating the return value to match the number of current table cell sections in the Storyboard table view resolved the issue.

Somewhere you are likely accessing _videos prior to initializing it. Most likely you'd doing it after init, but prior to loading the view. The fix for this kind of problem is to use accessors exclusively, and to lazy-initialize self.videos. This is one of many reasons never to access your ivars directly except in init and dealloc.
#interface ...
#property (nonatomic, readonly, strong) NSMutableArray *videos;
#end
#implementation ...
{
NSMutableArray *_videos; // Can't auto-synthesize. We override the only accessor.
}
- (NSMutableArray *)videos {
if (! _videos) {
_videos = [NSMutableArray new];
}
return _videos;
}
Now all references to self.videos will be initialized no matter when they happen.
You can also initialize videos correctly in init, which takes a little less code:
#interface ...
#property (nonatomic, readonly, strong) NSMutableArray *videos;
#end
#implementation ...
- (id)init {
self = [super init];
if (self) {
_videos = [NSMutableArray new];
}
return self;
}

I have passed dummy image name for images array like this,
arrImages = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:[UIImage imageNamed:#"some.png"]
The above line caused me error. So I changed #"some.png" with existed image like #"category.png".
This is worked for me. Make sure you are passing correct image name from your bundle.
