I've seen this happening on a non garbage collected app too. Would
very much like to know the reason why.

I have a class with the following methods
- (void)save
{
NSError* error = nil;
if (![self save:&error]) {
NSLog(@"caught error during save: %@", error);
}
}
- (BOOL)save:(NSError**)error
{
if (![_thread isCancelled]) {
return [_managedObjectContext save:error];
}
return YES;
}
When -save is called it calls -save: to get error information if an
error occurs while saving an NSManagedObjectContext. When an error
does occur sometimes a crash will occur at NSLog when trying to get
the NSError description. Is it possible that the local variable
error in -save is being garbage collected before NSLog is called?
