NSMutableArray addObject: -[__NSArrayI addObject:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance

Question

I have tried to initialize my NSMutableArray 100 ways from Sunday, and NOTHING is working for me. I tried setting it equal to a newly allocated and initialized NSMutableArra

Answer 1

Have some indexes (into a data array elsewhere) and wanted to have them in numerical order (for a good reason). Crashing until added mutableCopy at the end. Totally puzzled, until I recalled that using Objective-C literal @[] returns a non-mutable array.

NSMutableArray *a = [@[@(self.indexA), @(self.indexB)] mutableCopy];
NSLog(@"%@", a);
[indexArray sortUsingComparator: ^(NSNumber *obj1, NSNumber *obj2) {
    return [obj1 compare:obj2];
}];
NSLog(@"%@", a);

Thanx, Zak!
