             Summary: Make CDVViewController also implement initWithNibName
                 Key: CB-818
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-818
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: iOS
    Affects Versions: 1.7.0
            Reporter: Matt Goldspink
            Assignee: Shazron Abdullah
            Priority: Minor


I just got caught upgrading from 1.5.0 to 1.7.0 by this. I extend 
CDVViewController, but I also use a nib file. The behaviour I was seeing was 
that the app would crash shortly after startup. When I used Zombie's in 
Instruments I could see that the CDVLocalStorage class was being allocated and 
then de-allocated straight away and the EXC_BAD_ACCESS error would be thrown by 
something trying to access it later on.

After a long time debugging I realised that the init method was not being 
called on the CDVViewController because I was being initialised from a nib and 
hence:

-(id) initWithNibName:(NSString *)nibNameOrNil bundle:(NSBundle *)nibBundleOrNil

was being called. Because init was not being called the commandDelegate was not 
set and hence the line which allocated the CDVViewController to registerPlugins 
would be doing it on a nil object. If initWithNibName was implemented and just 
invoked init() this would solve this issue and hopefully not let others 
extending CDVViewController get caught out either
