I'm trying to display a modal view straight after another view has been presented modally (the second is a loading view that appears).

- (void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated {
    [super viewDidAppear:animated];
    // Show load
    LoadViewController *loader = [[LoadViewController alloc] init];
    [self presentModalViewController: loader animated:NO];
    [loader release];
}

But when I do this I get a "Program received signal: "EXC_BAD_ACCESS"." error.

The stack trace is:

0  0x30b43234 in -[UIWindowController transitionViewDidComplete:fromView:toView:]
1  0x3095828e in -[UITransitionView notifyDidCompleteTransition:]
2  0x3091af0d in -[UIViewAnimationState sendDelegateAnimationDidStop:finished:]
3  0x3091ad7c in -[UIViewAnimationState animationDidStop:finished:]
4  0x0051e331 in run_animation_callbacks
5  0x0051e109 in CA::timer_callback
6  0x302454a0 in CFRunLoopRunSpecific
7  0x30244628 in CFRunLoopRunInMode
8  0x32044c31 in GSEventRunModal
9  0x32044cf6 in GSEventRun
10 0x309021ee in UIApplicationMain
11 0x00002154 in main at main.m:14

Any ideas? I'm totally stumped! The loading view is empty so there's definitely nothing going on in there that's causing the error. Is it something to do with launching 2 views modally in the same event loop or something?

Thanks,

Mike

Edit: Very strange... I have modified it slightly so that the loading view is shown after a tiny delay, and this works fine! So it appears to be something within the same event loop!

- (void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated {
    [super viewDidAppear:animated];
    // Show load
    [self performSelector:@selector(doit) withObject:nil afterDelay:0.1];
}

- (void)doit {
    [self presentModalViewController:loader animated:YES];  
}
