Becky Gibson reassigned CB-1578:
--------------------------------
Assignee: Becky Gibson (was: Shazron Abdullah)
> App crash (while stopping) caused by an unregistered notification handler in
> CDVConnection
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CB-1578
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-1578
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: iOS
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0, 2.1.0
> Environment: iOS, all versions
> XCode, all versions
> Reporter: Christoph Jerolimov
> Assignee: Becky Gibson
> Priority: Critical
>
> The class {{CDVConnection}} registered itself as observer for background
> events {{UIApplicationDidEnterBackgroundNotification}} and
> {{UIApplicationWillEnterForegroundNotification}}. But it did NOT unregistered
> these calls, for example in the dealloc method.
> This caused in different type of errors which all ends in an app crash. If a
> CDVConnection instance was already removed from the memory the selectors
> onPause and onResume will be called on random other objects which doesn't
> support this selector (1) or illegal memory access!
> {code}
> # Only an example, this error calls selectors on "random memory / objects"!
> <Error>: -[CALayer onPause]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x1e56ac50
> {code}
> The code which register the notification could be found at the end of the
> file in the selector {{[CDVConnection initWithWebView:]}}.
> The versions 2.0.0 and 2.1.0 does NOT cleanup "only" the two mentioned
> events. Like you see in line 139:
> https://github.com/apache/incubator-cordova-ios/blob/2.0.0/CordovaLib/Classes/CDVConnection.m#L139
> https://github.com/apache/incubator-cordova-ios/blob/2.1.0/CordovaLib/Classes/CDVConnection.m#L139
> The current HEAD do additionally NOT remove the the event
> {{kReachabilityChangedNotification}} from line 113 which should result in
> another new bug in the upcoming version.
> https://github.com/apache/incubator-cordova-ios/blob/master/CordovaLib/Classes/CDVConnection.m#L113
> To fix this it's enough to add these removeObservers calls again to the
> dealloc method.
> {code}
> [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self
> name:kReachabilityChangedNotification object:nil];
> [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self
> name:UIApplicationDidEnterBackgroundNotification object:nil];
> [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self
> name:UIApplicationWillEnterForegroundNotification object:nil];
> {code}
> In generally it's would also be possible to remove the instance in CDVPlugin
> for all events!? This would allow you to remove many code from many different
> plugins and ensure that no other plugin forget these cleanup.
> {code}
> [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self];
> {code}
