Re: Async NSURLConnection - Crashes - Call Stacks

Hi Jerry. I don't know about the FTP crash, but I believe that the other two crashes are due to a 10.6.3 regression. I've filed "10.6.3 Regression? Reproducible NSURLConnection crash with 301 redirects". For more information and a sample Xcode project demonstrating the crash, see this ClickTo

Async NSURLConnection - Crashes - Call Stacks

I can find in the list archives for 2005-2007 quite a few mentions of crashes when using asynchronous NSURLConnection, and in 2005 I myself reported Problem ID 4347324. The crashes seemed to stop without a definitive resolution, possibly with Mac OS 10.5, but have reappeared in my apps recently

Supposing you were a complete C / Objective-C beginner. How would you find out what escape sequences are permitted in an NSString literal (that is, with @"...")? For example, K&R doesn't know about \u (backslash-u followed by four hex digits), but of course that is now legal (though it was not

I have to add that using dispatch_async on main queue within an NSApp will automatically drain the autorelease pool. AppKit drains the autorelease pool upon NSEvents dispatch. On Mon, Apr 19, 2010 at 12:36 PM, Julien Jalon wrote: > I don't see anything wrong with the output being 1/2: > > -(voi
