AddressBook plugin crash on iOS 9

Hi,

When I use the Adressbook plugin on iOS9, it crashes every time I pick a contact with a ‘linked contact’ (see image)

This doesn’t happen when I use it on iOS8 or below.

the code I use is fairly simple:

[lua]local contact_params = {
option = “pickContact”,
hideDetails = true,
– performDefaultAction = false,
listener = onContactsComplete
}

native.showPopup( “addressbook”, contact_params )[/lua]

Even without a listener, the app crashes completely on iOS 9 after I select a contact.

Is there a solution for this crash? Thanks,

Arthur

Hi @OCG Studios,

Can you please gather a crash report (if at all possible) and submit a bug report? We’ll have to explore why this is happening and what changed in iOS 9 which may be causing it.

I am seeing this issue too.

I would very much like to use the addressbook plugin in my app, but as it is now it is useless.

@OCG did you submit the bug report?

#7

It appears this is a permission bug introduced by apple in iOS 9.

Could coronalabs apply the workaround mentioned here?

@ojnab, I’ve submitted a bugreport last november. 

#9

@OCG thanks then I don’t need to do it.

I guess there isn’t a lot of people using the addressbook plugin since this is getting no attention at all.

Wish someone at CL would take a look at it. It should be fairly simple to fix.

I fixed this issue a couple of weeks ago.

I wasn’t aware that this thread existed, so my apologies for not replying.

Great. Thanks Danny.

I just tested the plugin and it is still not working for me.

I tested with the addressbook samplecode built for iOS 9.2 with db 2860.

It crashes every time I pick a contact with a ‘linked contact’

Below is my console output when it crashes.

This must be a separate issue than the one I fixed then. My apologies.

I’ll look into this today

#14

Yes I think you are right about that.

I seem to remember seeing another crash report than this one.

Thanks. 

#15

Just to be 100% clear… It crashes when a linked contact is selected, no matter what service the linked contact is tied to correct? (i.e iCloud, Facebook etc)

Thanks

#16

Not sure… the only type of linked contacts I have in my phone is “iPhone”

It crashes when I select that.

If I select a contact with no linked contacts it works as supposed to.

#17

That gives me enough to work off.

I’ll update this thread when i’ve got more info.

Thank you. 

#18

Any progress on fixing the addressbook plugin Danny?

Thanks, Nail

#19

Sorry for the delay, been swamped.

Just started looking into this and can reproduce the crash.

I’ll update when I figure out the cause.

Thanks for your patience

#20

Great news Danny!

I’ve got 3 apps that use the AddressBook plugin that can’t be updated without a fix.

Thanks again,

Nail
