I have an app which is crashing with
Terminating in response to backboardd's termination
Here the app crashes and even the Springboard. You can see the Apple logo for a short time and it seems that the device is rebooting.
This is taken from the device log

I can't see any hint where the problem lies. The app crashes when I push a new view controller on the navigation stack. On this view controller there is a full screen label. The error also happens after opening and closing the view controller 40 times or so.
Similar questions have different hints:
- Too much memory from OS requested
- Too many animations/didn't queue animations
- Use instruments
- Memory warning
So the memory management problem is the most likely one. I tried to use Instruments, but Leaks didn't give me some useful hints (only some malloc and auto release pool with 48 kB max. - seems a OS bug). Also Zombies and Activity Monitor aren't helpful. Using Instruments makes everything really slow.
Only with allocations I saw the UILabel subclass is taking too much space. Every time the new view controller is created, the memory increases by 10 MB (persistent bytes) and that is only the label!
Too make things more complex I'm using Xamarin.iOS. The garbage collector isn't deallocating the view controller when it popped off the navigation controller. But it does it at some time. I think when the system needs more space (nothing left) than the GC kicks in. I could reproduce this behavior in a simple project with my big sized label.
Why does the garbage collector doesn't kick in? I get memory warnings but I can't release something. Normally the view controller and its subviews should get deallocated when they are unloaded from the navigation controller.
When I know why my app is crashing I can do something against this. How can I debug this issue?
Edit:
Now I tried to crash the app on an iPhone. Here you can find the debugger output and here the device log. Again it seems that I'm running out of memory. But my only hint is still the label, because none of the tools can tell me exactly where the problem lies.
回答1:
I made the following steps to reduce the memory pressure:
- used separate class for my custom
EventArgs(before: in view controller) - no anonymous function for button in
UINavigationBar - no anonymous funciton for
UIActionSheet - rewrote
EventHandlerin that way that I subscribe to them inviewWillAppearand unsubscribe inviewWillDisappear(most of the time) - added
TargetforUIGestureRecognizerinviewWillAppearand removed it inviewWillDisappear - removed cycle between view controller and datasource through using a
WeakReference
I made some checks and it now seems to work. For testing if a view controller is deallocated or not use this:
protected override void Dispose (bool disposing)
{
Console.WriteLine (String.Format ("{0} controller disposed - {1}",
this.GetType (), this.GetHashCode ()));
base.Dispose (disposing);
}
Through this and commenting the things out I were able to detect the reference cycles. I hope I fixed all problems. The main problems were the EventHandler.
For solving my issue the following questions belong to it:
- Clicked handler not executed for UIButton in UIBarButtonItem
- How to break reference cycle between view controller and data source
- Through presenting new view controller viewWillDisappear on parent is triggered where I unsubscribe from the events
- RemoveTarget from UITapGestureRecognizer
- Add/remove EventHandler for UIBarButtonItem
