popover iOS8中的setContentViewController方法导致应用程序崩溃

Question

The setContentViewController method in UIPopoverController seems to be causing an app crash in iOS 8. Just wondering if anybody else also faced this issue in iOS 8. This works without any issue in iOS 7.

The error pointed in the exception seems to be misleading as it states that the setContentViewController should be called after presenting the popover

- (void)buttonPressed {

UIViewController *tableViewController = [UIViewController new];

if(_popover == nil){

    _popover = [[UIPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:tableViewController];

    [_popover presentPopoverFromRect:CGRectMake(self.textField.frame.size.width / 2, self.textField.frame.size.height / 1, 1, 1) inView:self.textField permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionLeft animated:YES];
}else{
    [_popover setContentViewController:tableViewController];
}    

}

Here is Stack trace from the crash,

Answer 1

I just encountered this same error testing our app under iOS 8. In our case, I took the error message at face value and changed a pattern we had in a few places.

The pattern we had to change was: (1) in our view controller's init, instantiate a popover controller instance. (2) on some event, set the popover controller's contentViewController property to the desired vc. (3) call presentPopoverFromRect on the popover controller

and we simply changed step (2) to re-instantiate the popover controller with the desired content vc as an init parameter and ceased setting the contentViewController property (as we're always doing it prior to presenting the popover).

Answer 2

I was experiencing this same issue and finally solved it.

I have two buttons, each one shows its own popover. I was reusing the same UIPopoverController to show both of them. The first click worked fine, but then if you clicked the other one the app crashed.

The way I solved it is create a new UIPopoverController on each click:

importImagePickerControlPopoverController=[[UIPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:pickerController];
[importImagePickerControlPopoverController setDelegate:self];

switch(pickerType)
{
    case UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary:
    case UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeSavedPhotosAlbum:
        [importImagePickerControlPopoverController setPopoverContentSize:CGSizeMake(320, 300) animated:YES];
        break;
    case UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera:
        [importImagePickerControlPopoverController setPopoverContentSize:CGSizeMake(640, 640) animated:YES];
        break;
}
[importImagePickerControlPopoverController setContentViewController:pickerController];

Answer 3

Similar to @user3495742 solution:

-(void)testAndSetPopoverWithVc:(UIViewController*)vc {
    if (popover4Menu) {
        if ([popover4Menu isPopoverVisible]) {
            [popover4Menu setContentViewController:vc animated:YES];
            return;
        } else {
            popover4Menu=nil;
        }
    };
    popover4Menu=[[UIPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:vc];
    popover4Menu.delegate=self;
}

Problem rises when reassigning a view controller to an existing popover. Free and realloc popover before assigning new content view controller: this fixed for me.

Answer 4

I had the same issue and this is what fixed it for me.

Try This

- (void)buttonPressed{

  UIViewController *tableViewController = [UIViewController new];

  //Check if the popover is nil or not visible
  if(_popover == nil || _popover.popoverVisible == false){

    _popover = [[UIPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:tableViewController];

    [_popover presentPopoverFromRect:CGRectMake(self.textField.frame.size.width / 2, self.textField.frame.size.height / 1, 1, 1) inView:self.textField permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionLeft animated:YES];
  }else{
    [_popover setContentViewController:tableViewController];
  }
}

Answer 5

Add these two methods into your UIwebview main class. add <UIPopoverPresentationControllerDelegate> in your webview interface.h class as well. define .

@property (strong, nonatomic) UIPopoverPresentationController *pop;

then

@synthesize pop;

- (void)prepareForSegue:(UIStoryboardSegue *)segue sender:(id)sender {
    // Assuming you've hooked this all up in a Storyboard with a popover presentation style
    if ([segue.identifier isEqualToString:@"showPopover"]) {
        UINavigationController *destNav = segue.destinationViewController;
        pop = destNav.viewControllers.firstObject;

        // This is the important part
        UIPopoverPresentationController *popPC = destNav.popoverPresentationController;
        popPC.delegate = self;
    }
}
- (UIModalPresentationStyle)adaptivePresentationStyleForPresentationController:(UIPresentationController *)controller {
    return UIModalPresentationNone;
}

Answer 6

You have already have the content view controller set:

_popover = [[UIPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:tableViewController]; 
                                                                        ↑
                                                                      Here

So, why not just delete the line?:

 [_popover setContentViewController:tableViewController];

That should work.

Answer 7

If popover is not visible when you are calling [_popover setContentViewController:tableViewController]; , app will get crash.

Because this method should be called when popover is visible on the screen.

Make sure your popover is visible,

if(_popover != nil && [_popover isPopoverVisible] == YES)
{
   [_popover setContentViewController:tableViewController];
}else
{
       //create new popover object if _popover is nil or present it
}

Answer 8

   [self.popover dismissPopoverAnimated:YES]; //in case it's already showing.  
   self.popover = nil; // N.B. this is not the same as popover = nil. 
   self.popover = [[UIPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:tableViewController];
   [self.popover  presentPopoverFromRect:CGRectMake(self.textField.frame.size.width /
   2, self.textField.frame.size.height / 1, 1, 1) inView:self.textField
   permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionLeft animated:YES];

Answer 9

You do not need to create new instance of UIPopoverController neither set new contentViewController property after you first present UIPopoverViewController. (it depends on how you dismiss you popoverController)

However contentViewController can't be changed before popoverController presentation.

To workaround check popoverController.contentViewController properties. If it is nil , set conntentViewController , otherwise just present popover.

If you want to change contentViewController do it after presentation: use setContentViewController:animated: method. Check that popoverController.isPopoverVisible before call this method.
