App crashes due to scrollViewProxy set to nil. Release 1.3.3 about slacktextviewcontroller

[hretarekar]

Shouldn't scrollViewProxy property be strong instead of weak? When it is set in initWithCoder, ARC will release the value and set it back to nil as there is nothing at this point which retains it.

[dzenbot]

Is this reproduceable in the sample project, on your end?
Doesn't happen here.

The scrollViewProxy property is meant to be weak since it's just referring to strong properties like tableView or collectionView. Will try to diagnose the issue soon.

[hretarekar]

Cool. Will test it and let you know if there are any issues. Thanks.

Hi @dzenbot and @hretarekar,

I'm so excited to use this pod but I'm afraid I am still experiencing this same crash as hretarekar, even on the latest release. It's the same log trace except a few of the line numbers have changed slightly.

I cannot reproduce the problem in the sample project. Perhaps you can shed some insight based on my circumstance:

• I am programmatically instantiating my viewcontroller with a xib file.
• I have an IBOutlet from the tableview in my xib to my viewcontroller.

I have experimented with including and tweaking the following methods but could not get anywhere:
+ (UITableViewStyle)tableViewStyleForCoder:(NSCoder *)decoder
- (id)initWithCoder:(NSCoder *)aDecoder
- (void)commonInit

Any advice?

Hit the same crash when upgrade to 1.7.
Works fine on 1.5 and 1.6 tho.

[dzenbot]

@cassidyclawson you are not supposed to have a tablview in your xib nor liking it with an IBOutlet.
Are you doing the same @Fanghao

The current Interface Builder is actually a trick: you can't layout outlets on it since all the subviews are created programatically.

[Fanghao]

no. I am doing it all programmatically.

Just try 1.7.1, and it works. Really dunno what's the problem.
