When I run the following Code it crashes at the last line. I don't have any idea why. This function gets called in awakeFromNib.
- (void)setMotdText:(NSString *)text { NSString *boldFontName = [[NSFont boldSystemFontOfSize:12] fontName]; NSMutableAttributedString *attrstr = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithString:text]; [attrstr beginEditing]; [attrstr addAttribute:NSFontAttributeName value:boldFontName range:NSMakeRange(0, 16)]; [attrstr endEditing]; [self.motdTextView.textStorage setAttributedString:attrstr]; } I get this crash log:
