[xmlParser abortParsing] crashing my app !

XXX · 09-09-2011, 07:17 PM

i am parsing xml in background thread.

Code:

[self performSelectorInBackground:@selector(parseXML) withObject:nil];

but if i dismiss the view before it ends parsing it'll cause the app to crash. in the ViewWillDisappear i have this

Code:

- (void) viewWillDisappear:(BOOL)animated {
    [super viewWillDisappear:animated];
    [xmlParser abortParsing];
    [xmlParser release];
    xmlParser = nil;
}

but the moment i dismiss the view app will crash.

any ideas please !

And what's the crash log in the console?

Also, calls to super in unloading methods should come last.
