iOS7 - UITabBarController seletedIndex crash

Question

iOS7 - UITabBarController seletedIndex crash

I am working on a TabBar based application. At some point I am doing:

if([[[appDelegate.tabBarController viewControllers] objectAtIndex:1] isKindOfClass:[UINavigationController class]]) {
    UINavigationController *navController = [[appDelegate.tabBarController viewControllers] objectAtIndex:1];
    [navController popToRootViewControllerAnimated:NO];
}
appDelegate.tabBarController.selectedIndex = 1; // CRASH HERE

On iOS6 it is working fine but when I build the application with XCode5 / iOS7 then the application crash here randomly. Please help me guys.

Thank you!

You have solved the problem. The reason is that the view controller is released but the searchbar.delegate is not setting nil. So you can set searchBar.delegate = nil in dealloc of the view controller.

In iOS7, the navigation controller stack is crashed so I have done following:

NSMutableArray *allControllersArray = [[appDelegate.tabBarController viewControllers] mutableCopy];
SearchViewController *viewController2 = [[SearchViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"SearchViewController" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *search=[[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:viewController2]; 
[allControllersArray replaceObjectAtIndex:1 withObject:search];

appDelegate.tabBarController.viewControllers = allControllersArray;

And after that:

appDelegate.tabBarController.selectedIndex = 1;
