App crashing sometimes when transitioning between views: how to debug constraints?

问题

I perform a transition between views with an animation. It sometimes works, and it also sometimes causes a crash and I don't understand why. I have my code within a @try-@catch block but no exception is retrieved in @catch. I simply get an app crash with a SIGABRT signal and the following log:

2015-09-23 10:03:43.420 My App[1510:528283] The view hierarchy is not prepared for the constraint: When added to a view, the constraint's items must be descendants of that view (or the view itself). This will crash if the constraint needs to be resolved before the view hierarchy is assembled. Break on -[UIView(UIConstraintBasedLayout) _viewHierarchyUnpreparedForConstraint:] to debug.

2015-09-23 10:03:43.421 My App[1510:528283] *** Assertion failure in -[UIView _layoutEngine_didAddLayoutConstraint:roundingAdjustment:mutuallyExclusiveConstraints:], /BuildRoot/Library/Caches/com.apple.xbs/Sources/UIKit/UIKit-3505.16/NSLayoutConstraint_UIKitAdditions.m:590

I don't understand why it sometimes works and other times it crashes, and I don't understand how can I debug this, please I need help.

Thanks in advance

EDIT:

This is the method that seems to cause the app crashes:

- (void)switchToMainView
{
   [UIView transitionWithView:self.view
                     duration:1.0
                      options:UIViewAnimationOptionTransitionFlipFromRight
                animations:^{
                    @try {
                        if ([self.secView superview]) {
                            [self setMainView];
                            [self.secView removeFromSuperview];
                            [self.view addSubview:self.mainView];
                            [self.view sendSubviewToBack:self.secView];
                        }
                    }
                    @catch (NSException *exception) {
                        NSLog(@"exception: %@", exception.description);
                    }
                }
                completion:^(BOOL finished){
                    if (finished) {
                        @try {
                            [self.view setNeedsUpdateConstraints];
                            [self setMessage];
                        }
                        @catch (NSException *exception) {
                            NSLog(@"exception: %@", exception.description);
                        }
                    }
                }];
}

And the setMessage method that is called in the completion block:

- (void)setMessage
{
   UIView *messageView = nil;

   @try {
      messageView = [[[NSBundle mainBundle] loadNibNamed:@"MessageView" owner:nil options:nil] firstObject];

      messageView.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, self.messagesContainerView.frame.size.width, self.messagesContainerView.frame.size.height);
      [self.messagesContainerView.subviews makeObjectsPerformSelector: @selector(removeFromSuperview)];
      [self.messagesContainerView addSubview:messageView];
   }
   @catch (NSException *exception) {
      NSLog(@"exception: %@", exception.description);
   }
}

where self.messagesContainerView is a subview of self.mainView in the first method.

Thanks again

回答1:

Without seeing your code It's hard to debug the actual problem. The probably causes are:

You are adding a constraint to a view that is not a superview of the constrained class.
You are adding a constraint to a view that has not been added as a subview yet - and so is not in the view hierarchy.

As to fixing it. I managed to create a project which crashes in this way, and correctly found the mistake by adding a symbolic breakpoint as the error suggests:

So try this and see where your problem is coming from.
