[NSCustomView isOpaque]: message sent to deallocated instance 0x123456
- by JxXx
Hi all
I receive that message in debugger console since I added the following arguments for debugging my application with XCode.
NSZombieEnabled: YES
NSZombieLevel: 16
I was looking for zombie objects... Before doing so, the application failed before I could know where what and why was happening.... Now I´m pretty sure that 'something' outside code is trying to access an object previously released and I can't know where or why it happens neither where it was released...
My application is based on this proof of concept (very interesting and colorful) of QuartzCore Framework:
http://www.cimgf.com/2008/03/03/core-animation-tutorial-wizard-dialog-with-transitions/
Based on it, I added a few more nsviews to my project and a title and an index to each one, also I added some buttons, text and images depending on what 'dialog' (ACLinkedView object) it was...
The transition from an ACLinkedView object to another is going through a validation that depends on the view where you are ...
As you see I used this proof of concept as the foundation of my application and it grew and grew into an application that makes use of configuration files, web services (using gSOAP and C ...)
I hope you can give me some clues to where is my error ... I´ve been the hole week debugging unsuccessfully, as I said before, I think that that message comes from a point outside my code. I'd say that the problem s related with bad memory allocation or automatisms (nearly completely unknowns for me) during loading the nib components...
I will try to explain all this with parts of mycode.
This is my ACLinkedView definition:
#import <Cocoa/Cocoa.h>
@interface ACLinkedView : NSView
{
// The Window (to close it if needed)
IBOutlet NSWindow *mainWindow;
// Linked Views
IBOutlet ACLinkedView *previousView;
IBOutlet ACLinkedView *nextView;
// Buttons
IBOutlet NSButton *previousButton;
IBOutlet NSButton *nextButton;
IBOutlet NSButton *helpButton; //It has to be a Button!!
IBOutlet NSImageView *bannerImg;
NSString *sName;
int iPosition;
}
- (void) SetName: (NSString*) Name;
- (void) SetPosition: (int) Position;
- (NSString*) GetName;
- (int) GetPosition;
- (void) windowWillClose:(NSNotification*)aNotification;
@property (retain) NSWindow *mainWindow;
@property (retain) ACLinkedView *previousView, *nextView;
@property (retain) NSButton *previousButton, *nextButton, *helpButton;
@property (retain) NSImageView *bannerImg;
@property (retain) NSString *sName;
@end
The ACLinkedView's AwakeFromNib is this:
#import <Cocoa/Cocoa.h>
@interface ACLinkedView : NSView
{
// The Window (to close it if needed)
IBOutlet NSWindow *mainWindow;
// Linked Views
IBOutlet ACLinkedView *previousView;
IBOutlet ACLinkedView *nextView;
// Buttons
IBOutlet NSButton *previousButton;
IBOutlet NSButton *nextButton;
IBOutlet NSButton *helpButton; //It has to be a Button!!
IBOutlet NSImageView *bannerImg;
NSString *sName;
int iPosition;
}
- (void) SetName: (NSString*) Name;
- (void) SetPosition: (int) Position;
- (NSString*) GetName;
- (int) GetPosition;
- (void) windowWillClose:(NSNotification*)aNotification;
@property (retain) NSWindow *mainWindow;
@property (retain) ACLinkedView *previousView, *nextView;
@property (retain) NSButton *previousButton, *nextButton, *helpButton;
@property (retain) NSImageView *bannerImg;
@property (retain) NSString *sName;
@end
(As you can see the initialization of each ACLinkedView object depends on it's position wich is seted up into the Interface Builder by linking actions, buttons and CustomViews...
Does I explain enough?
Do you think that I should put more of my code here, i.e. AppDelegate definition or it´s awakeFromNib method?
Can you help me in any way?
Thanks in advance.
Juan
