Modifications to the layout engine must not be performed from a background thread after it has been accessed from the main thread

问题

I am getting this crash after converting an existing UIViewController to Auto Layout and I can't figure out what is causing it. I did search for dispatch_async(dispatch_get_global_queue(...)) calls but none changes layout.

The stack trace is also very unhelpful:

(lldb)

Is there any way to figure out the exact place that triggered the layout?

回答1:

I finally found out the problem after taking another look at the stack trace. The problem was that I was changing the value property of a UISlider instance on a background thread.

But nowhere does it state that you have to change it on the main thread! (Thanks, Apple) Apparently, it seems like UISlider implements the value's setter and forces a layout or something similar.
