What can be causing this crash?

I've recently had a crash concerning a selector not being found when a notification was posted using NSNotificationCenter. What can be causing this error?

I've noticed that there was no user code being called after the notification was posted, so that doesn't seem to be a problem on the receiving side of the notifi开发者_如何转开发cation. However, what could cause NSNotificationCenter to crash?

Here's the stack trace of the call:

Most likely NSNotificationCenter is trying to notify an object instance that no longer exists.

In other words, an object was deallocated without removing itself as a NSNotificationCenter observer. Check your code for cases when an object adds itself as a NSNotificationCenter observer but fails to remove itself from NSNotificationCenter.

---

Looks like you added an object as an observer that doesn't respond to the selector you provided. Make sure your notification method accepts one argument of type NSNotification

Maybe a check to respondsToSelector followed with some logging of the object's class name etc could help you further?
