Debug build works beautifully, ad hoc build crashes hard_问答_开发者

I'm working with the EXIF library at http://code.google.com/p/iphone-exif/ and I have come across a real head scratcher of a bug. When I implement the library in a debug build everything works beautifully, but when I compile for ad hoc beta testing the app crashes hard.

I'm getting the following error:

Exception Type:  EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGBUS)
Exception Codes: KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE at 0x00000000
Crashed Thread:  5

With Thread 5:

It is my suspicion that there is something different about the way the debug build handles memory vs. the way the ad-hoc build handles memory. It seems to me from the error that this code is trying to write to memory blocks it does not have access to, and when it does the Ad-hoc iPhone OS shuts the process down.

What would cause this behavior in the ad hoc distribution, but not in the debug build? The debug build works fine even when the phone is disconnected and the debugger off.

Many thanks in advance.

The code:

My Code to implement the library (Line 935 is the first line of this block, the alloc statment)

EXFJpeg* jpegScanner = [[EXFJpeg alloc] init]; 
  [jpegScanner scanImageData:imgData];   

  CLLocation *location = self.gps.lastReading ? self.gps.lastReading : [self.gps.locationManager location];
  [location retain];


  NSMutableArray* locArray = [self createLocArray:location.coordinate.latitude]; 
  EXFGPSLoc* gpsLoc = [[EXFGPSLoc alloc] init]; 
  [self populateGPS: gpsLoc :locArray]; 
  [jpegScanner.exifMetaData addTagValue:gpsLoc forKey:[NSNumber numberWithInt:EXIF_GPSLatitude]; 
  [gpsLoc release]; 

  locArray = [self createLocArray:location.coordinate.longitude]; 
  gpsLoc = [[EXFGPSLoc alloc] init]; 
  [self populateGPS: gpsLoc :locArray];
  [locArray release]; 

  [jpegScanner.exifMetaData addTagValue:gpsLoc forKey:[NSNumber numberWithInt:EXIF_GPSLongitude]; 
  [gpsLoc release]; 

  NSString *ref = (location.coordinate.latitude <0.0)?ref = @"S": @"N";  
  [jpegScanner.exifMetaData addTagValue: ref forKey:[NSNumber numberWithInt:EXIF_GPSLatitudeRef] ];
  ref = (location.coordinate.longitude <0.0)? @"W": @"E";
  [jpegScanner.exifMetaData addTagValue: ref forKey:[NSNumber numberWithInt:EXIF_GPSLongitudeRef]];
  [jpegScanner.exifMetaData addTagValue: @"Apple" forKey:[NSNumber numberWithInt:EXIF_Make];
  [jpegScanner.exifMetaData addTagValue: @"iPhone" forKey:NSNumber numberWithInt:EXIF_Model];  
  [jpegScanner.exifMetaData addTagValue:[NSNumber numberWithInt:0] forKey:[NSNumber numberWithInt:EXIF_GPSAltitudeRef] ];

  NSArray *arr = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:[NSNumber numberWithInt:0], NSNumber numberWithInt:0], [NSNumber numberWithInt:2], [NSNumber numberWithInt:2], nil];
  [jpegScanner.exifMetaData addTagValue: arr forKey:[NSNumber numberWithInt:EXIF_GPSVersion] ];
  [arr release];

  long numDenumArray[2]; 
  long* arrPtr = numDenumArray; 
  [EXFUtils convertRationalToFraction:&arrPtr: [NSNumber numberWithDouble:location.altitude]]; 
  EXFraction *fract = [[EXFraction alloc] initWith:numDenumArray[0] :numDenumArray[1]]; 
  [jpegScanner.exifMetaData addTagValue:fract forKey:[NSNumber 
                                           numberWithInt:EXIF_GPSAltitude] ]; 

  NSMutableData *newData = [[NSMutableData alloc] init];
  [jpegScanner populateImageData:newData];
  [jpegScanner release];

And last but not lest the function from the library itself:

    Debug(@"Starting scan headers");

    // pointer to the end of the EXIF Data and the start of the rest of the image
    ByteArray* endOfEXFPtr;

    imageLength = CFDataGetLength((CFDataRef)jpegData);

   // CFRetain(&imageLength);

    Debug(@"Length of image %i", imageLength);

    imageBytePtr = (UInt8 *) CFDataGetBytePtr((CFDataRef)jpegData);
    imageStartPtr = imageBytePtr;

    // check if a valid jpeg file
    UInt8 val = [self readNextbyte];

    if (val != M_BEG){
         Debug(@"Not a valid JPEG File");
        return;
    }

    val = [self readNextbyte];

    if (val != M_SOI){
        Debug(@"Not a valid start of image JPEG File");
        return;
    }


    // increment this to position after second byte
    BOOL finished =FALSE;

    while(!finished){
        // increment the marker

        val = [self nextMarker];

        Debug(@"Got next marker %x at byte count %i", val, (imageBytePtr - imageStartPtr));

                        [self readImageInfo];

I got this same problem a while ago, and found 2 solutions (or workarounds):

Use the precompiled library from http://code.google.com/p/iphone-exif/downloads/list instead of compiling from the source
Change line 1270 of EXFMetaData.m to:

CFDataGetBytes(*exifData, CFRangeMake(6,2), order);

as suggested here: http://code.google.com/p/iphone-exif/issues/detail?id=4&can=1

Patched IT :

Write this code in te file EXFJpeg.m at row 330

if (!imageBytePtr) return;

Just before

UInt8 val = [self readNextbyte];

THAT'S ALL !!!!
