Hi Alan,
I didn't look in further details yet, but clearly your initWithBlock method is
wrong, it should be:
- (id)initWithBlock:(void (^)())aBlock;
{
if ((self = [super init])) {
block = [aBlock copy];
NSLog(@"Block: %@", block);
block();
}
return self;
}
You are not assigning `self` to be equal to what `[super init]` returns, and
this is, even without macruby or blocks, prone to crashes :-)
Can you try to fix this and then tell us if it's still crashing?
