iOS App crash with exception related to _NSFastEnumerationMutationHandler
I am currently working on an iOS app which crashes and generates the crash report provided below.We think that the app is crashing due to mutation while Fast Enumeration but the error is occurring in NSISEngine.
We also think that the issue is related to constraints of a Table View. This Table View shows info fetched from Rest Services and we are programmatically updating the DataSource in viewWillAppear().
Some of the constraints we are adding programmatically which are as follows:
Method:
1.cellForRowAtIndexPath()
Constraints:
a. Updated UILabel with attributed String to set line height:
[attributedString addAttribute:NSFontAttributeName value:self.font range:NSMakeRange(0, text.length)];
self.attributedText = attributedString;
b. Updated UIImage:
myCell.myLogo.layer.masksToBounds =YES;
myCell.myLogo.layer.opaque = NO;
[[myCell.myLogo layer] setCornerRadius:4.];
c. Border for Table View cell
mySecondCell.secondCellContainerView.layer.masksToBounds = YES;
[mySecondCell.secondCellContainerView.layer setCornerRadius:3.7];
[mySecondCell.secondCellContainerView addBorderWithColorRed:@214 Green:@214 Blue:@214];
[myCell.myLogo addBorderWithColorRed:@214 Green:@214 Blue:@214];
- heightForRowAtIndexPath()
Constraints: We are calculating height on the basis of the content which is dynamic.
We are using StoryBoard and some of the constraints are set there using Auto Layout.
I searched a lot however was unable to find a crash report similar to the one my app generated. I am new to iOS programming. Can somebody help me with debugging this crash report? If there is a constraint causing this issue, can somebody help me figure out the same? Thanks in advance.

Update:
Following is the code by which we are populating our datasource:
(void) viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated {
[super viewWillAppear:animated];
viewWillAppearFlag = true;
if(dataFetched) {
[self setupDatasourceDetails:self.myData];
}
}
(void) setupDatasourceDetails:(NSArray *)data {
self.datasource = [MyDatasource new];
self.datasource.data=data;
[self.myTable setDataSource:self.datasource];
[self.myTable setDelegate:self.datasource];
[self.myTable reloadData];
}
//Callback from REST services
(void) onDataFetched:(NSArray *)data{
dataFetched=true;
self.myData=data;
if(viewWillAppearFlag){
[self setupDatasourceDetails:self.myData]; //the event which will occur later(either viewWillAppear or dataFetched) calls setupDatasourceDetails
}
}
Update:
The error is occurring while transition back from one view controller to another (in navigation controller).
We are using [self.navigationController popViewControllerAnimated:YES]; to transition back to the previous view controller. The transition is happening on the Main thread.
Let us know if any more information is required.
Update
It seems that our problem has been resolved. We moved the functionality from viewWillAppear to viewDidAppear. This fix seems to have resolved the issue. Does anyone know the reason why this fix worked? Please let us know. Thanks.

Two suggestions:
- Check that self.datasource is defined as
strongproperty (notweak) (and the data property onMyDatasource) Make sure
onDataFetched:is called on the main queue. If unsure, use this dispatching mechanism instead:dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{ // all update code here });

Martin UllrichI don't think the error is directly in the code you posted, but:
NSFastEnumerationMutationHandler
is raised when you are editing an array or dictionary while enumerating it. For example this is wrong:
for ( id obj in anArray ) {
if ( [obj shouldRemove == YES ) {
[anArray removeObject:obj];
}
}
If you need to do that you should work with a copy of an array or use filteredArrayUsingPredicate.

Grzegorz Krukowski
Grzegorz KrukowskiCan't see all of your code, but I am thinking you need to call layoutIfNeeded before setting the constraints as the views are not calculated before ViewWillAppear. The fact that it succeeds in ViewDidAppear is because the elements have been calculated. Alternately, you could try your code in DidLayoutSubviews.
