Issues with SDK 7.1 on iPhones 5S and iPad Air

Funkprovider

Hello all!

I am encountering a weird crash issue since I have updated to SDK 7.1.
I have a class listening to the SP_EVENT_TYPE_ENTER_FRAME event. In my example, that is pretty much the only thing I do, on Enter Frame, I decrease a certain amount of time, and when time reaches 0, I release the class, stop listening to the event in dealloc.
For some reason, I get a crash happening on both iPhone5S and iPad Air (both updated to iOS7.1). These are the only two devices I have reproduced the issue, both an iPad mini and an iPod Touch 5 running iOS7.1 work fine with the same code.(other devices running iOS6, and previous version of iOS7 do not have this issue either)

I am slightly mystified by this! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The crash in an EXC_BAD_ACCESS at the end of the @autoreleasepool in update in SPViewController.

Thank you and let me know if you need any more information/help for this!

Hm, that's odd! Which version of Sparrow are you using — latest head revision or the last stable release?

I guess it works fine in the simulator?
If you run Sparrow's demo project on those devices — does it work?

Hi Daniel,

Thank you very much for your help with this, it is greatly appreciated.

I have tried both head revision and the last stable release, and they both have the same issue.
I have ran the Sparrow demo on these devices without any issues either. However, I have managed to reproduce the issue in the simulator, on the basic iPad simulator. Very odd indeed.

I'll try to jiggle some of my code around (I have a super class which does a lot of level management things, I call an onEnterFrame on the super class from my class, it seems to be related to this for some reason.)

Thank you again!

I appear to have fixed it. I take it it's a bad thing to call [self removeAllChildren]; from dealloc?
I have no idea why it was crashing in the update autoreleasepool, and only on certain devices...
Anyway, fixed, I can move on. Thanks for your help, Daniel

I'm glad you solved that, thanks for the update! Hm, it seems that "removeAllChildren" accessed something that was already destroyed. In any case, it's definitely not necessary to call that; Sparrow does that automatically for you.
