Urban Airship crashes when calling takeoff


Upgrading to UrbanAirship 3.0.0 with Xcode 5.0, I'm getting an error when calling this code:

[UAirship takeOff:config];

The error is

+[NSJSONSerialization stringWithObject:]: unrecognized selector sent to class 0x3b2ca9fc
2013-09-19 15:02:31.981 [178:60b] *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '+[NSJSONSerialization stringWithObject:]: unrecognized selector sent to class 0x3b2ca9fc'

This doesn't seem to appear when setting the key "inProduction" to "YES" in the AirshipConfig.plist, which makes sense as calling takeOff: populates the instance of UAirShip. It seems to be due to the category NSJSONSerialization+UAAdditions.

Any help on this one? Thanks


Solution

  • To fix this issue, you must include "-ObjC" flag in "Other Linker Flags" found in your projects build settings.

    UAirship library 3.x now makes use of Objective-C categories so this flag must be set to avoid the runtime exception.
