I’m trying to debug a mysterious crash in a Swift init method. At the end of the method there are some calls to objc_release generated by the compiler, and it’s the first of these that crashes: the object being released has has its ‘isa’ pointer replaced by the value 0xbaddc0dedeadbead. This is obviously a magic value that someone put there to indicate the pointer isn’t valid, but I’ve never seen that particular value before. I’m guessing that it’s something to do with the Swift runtime.
I’ve turned on NSZombieEnabled but it doesn’t make a difference. And the object address doesn’t correspond to any parameter of the init method, nor is it the receiver (the class inherits from NSObject.) The crash is also not consistent; sometimes it doesn’t happen. I’m drawing a blank. Does anyone know what this means? (Oh, and this is in a 64-bit Mac OS X process. It’s a small all-Swift app I just started writing this week, which used to work until an hour ago, so I don’t think there’s any mysterious memory corruption involved.) —Jens _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
