  enter code here
  - (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInCollectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView
 {
     NSLog(@"self.chatSections....%@",self.chatSections);
     return [self.chatSections count];
 }


 - (UICollectionViewCell *)collectionView:(QMChatCollectionView *)collectionView cellForItemAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
   {

    QBChatMessage *messageItem = [self messageForIndexPath:indexPath];

      NSRange textRange =[messageItem.text rangeOfString:@"https://api.quickblox.com/blobs/"];

     Class class = [self viewClassForItem:messageItem];
    NSString *itemIdentifier = [class cellReuseIdentifier];

     QMChatCell *cell = [collectionView dequeueReusableCellWithReuseIdentifier:itemIdentifier forIndexPath:indexPath];
cell.avatarView.tag = 0;

  if ((messageItem.attachments.count != 0) && textRange.location != NSNotFound) 
{

       QBChatAttachment* attachment = [[QBChatAttachment alloc] init];
         attachment.ID = @"3565772";
         attachment.url = messageItem.text;
         attachment.type = @"image";

         [cell.avatarView setImageWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:attachment.url] placeholder:nil options:SDWebImageContinueInBackground progress:^(NSInteger receivedSize, NSInteger expectedSize)

     } completedBlock:^(UIImage *image, NSError *error, SDImageCacheType cacheType, NSURL *imageURL)
     {
         cell.avatarView.tag = 4592;
     }];
}

cell.transform = self.collectionView.transform;

UITapGestureRecognizer *singleTapGestureRecognizer = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:@selector(singleTap:)];
singleTapGestureRecognizer.numberOfTapsRequired = 1;
singleTapGestureRecognizer.enabled = YES;

[self collectionView:collectionView configureCell:cell forIndexPath:indexPath];

return cell;
   }

 - (QBChatMessage *)messageForIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
         if (indexPath.item == NSNotFound) {
          // If the update item's index path has an "item" value of NSNotFound, it means it was a section update, not an individual item.
        return nil;
     }

      QMChatSection *currentSection = self.chatSections[indexPath.section];
     return currentSection.messages[indexPath.item];
     }

Answer 1

Static cells, I had the same issue. So, I just replaced the tableView content type

"Static cell" to "Dynamic prototypes".

Answer 2

try this:

if (item != nil && item.count != 0) {
    QMChatSection *currentSection = self.chatSections[indexPath.section];
    return currentSection.messages[indexPath.item];
}

Answer 3

You can make check like this, check for the value before you try to access the index

  if (self.chatSections.count > 0) {
        QMChatSection *currentSection = self.chatSections[indexPath.section];
        if (currentSection.messages.count > 0){
            return currentSection.messages[indexPath.item];
        }else {
            return nil;
        }
    } else {
        return nil;
    }

If you are creating your own code with Quickblox you can refer their demo implementation as for me it works proper

Answer 4

Try adding an all-exception breakpoint (Add Exception Breakpoint) to debug where the exception occures. It does mean you are trying to access an object which is not in the index of array.

Best to find what is causing problem is to raise all exceptions before app crashes.
