In App Purchase Crashes on [[SKPaymentQueue defaul

My In-App-Purchases work. I present a ModalView with a "Buy" UIButton. You click the button and the In App Purchase goes through the process. You can even do it several times in a row.

The problem occurs if you open the Modal View, then close the Modal View (using a UITabBarButtonItem), then reopen the Modal View and tap the "Buy" button. The app crashes and I get an NSZombie that reads

*** -[InAppPurchaseManager respondsToSelector:]: message sent to deallocated instance 0x1c7ad0

The NSZombie points to line 160 in the .m file. I have marked it with comments.

I got the original code from this page: http://troybrant.net/blog/2010/01/in-app-purchases-a-full-walkthrough/

I have been struggling with this for many days now... any help would be awesome.

回答1:

The error message indicates a message is being sent to a deallocated instance of InAppPurchaseManager, which is your class. And it's happening after you open the view (creating an instance), close the view (releasing an instance), then opening the view again (creating a second instance). And the problem is happening within the addPayment: call. This indicates that the framework still has a handle on your old, released instance, and is trying to send it a message.

You give the framework a handle to your object in loadStore, when you call

[[SKPaymentQueue defaultQueue] addTransactionObserver:self];

I don't see anywhere where you remove self as an observer. Objects that send out notifications usually do not retain their observers, since doing so can create a retain cycle and/or a memory leak.

In your dealloc code you need to cleanup and call removeTransactionObserver:. That should solve your problem.

回答2:

I think observers added using addTransactionObserver are apparently weak references - not strong ones, which would explain this. I've made a simple test:

// bad code below:
// the reference is weak so the observer is immediately destroyed
addTransactionObserver([[MyObserver alloc] init]);
...
[[SKPaymentQueue defaultQueue] addPayment:payment]; // crash

And got the same crash even without calling removeTransactionObserver. The solution in my case was to simply keep a strong reference to the observer:

@property (strong) MyObserver* observer;
....
self.observer = [[MyObserver alloc] init];
addTransactionObserver(observer);
