I'm using the JSON Framework addon for iPhone's Objective-C to catch a JSON object that's an array of Dictionary-style objects via HTTP. Here's my connectionDidFinishLoading
function:
- (void)connectionDidFinishLoading:(NSURLConnection *)connection {
[connection release];
NSString *responseString = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:responseData encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
[loadingIndicator stopAnimating];
NSArray *responseArray = [responseString JSONValue]; // Grab the JSON array of dictionaries
NSLog(@"Response Array: %@", responseArray);
if ([responseArray respondsToSelector:@selector(count)]) {
NSLog(@"Returned %@ items", [responseArray count]);
}
[responseArray release];
[responseString release];
}
The issue is that the code is throwing a EXC_BAD_ACCESS
error on the second NSLog
line. The EXC_BAD_ACCESS
error I think indicates that the variable got released from memory, but the first NSLog
command works just fine (and shows that the data is all there); it seems that only when calling the count
message is causing the error, but the respondsToSelector
call at least thinks that the responseArray
should be able to respond to that message. When running with the debugger, it crashes on that second line, but the stack shows that the responseArray
object is still defined, and has 12 objects in it (so the debugger at least is able to get an accurate count
of the contents of that variable).
Is this a problem with the JSON framework's creation of that NSArray
, or is there something wrong with my code?
