I am new to Core Data and I have encountered a problem. This app is supposed to store images from the photo library to core data and display those in a collection view.
However, the problem is the pictures display when the app is newly installed on the simulator and you just add pictures. But when you close the app and open again it crashes and shows an error in the console: Thread 1 EXC_BAD_ACCESS

Update: Based on the comments made below, I have made changes to the code.
override func collectionView(collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCellWithReuseIdentifier("cell", forIndexPath: indexPath) as! MainCollectionViewCell
if let imagePath = images[indexPath.row].imageData {
cell.imageView.image = UIImage(data: imagePath)
}
// Configure the cell
return cell
}
But now, I get another error: 2015-12-26 20:10:24.464 Collect[480:69113] -[Thumbnail imageData]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x13fe9ba00.
The code class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate { on AppDelegate.swift is highlighted.
It is an interesting thing that the app works until a certain point. For instance, when I uninstall the app from the phone I am running it in and then rerun it again, it works for a while until it crashes.
But still, it does not work perfectly like I hope it would be. Sometimes, one picture will appear only if another picture is added.
Update 2: I made some adjustments based on your comments below:
override func viewDidAppear(animated: Bool) {
authenticateUser()
let managedContext = AppDelegate().managedObjectContext
let fetchRequest = NSFetchRequest(entityName: "Thumbnail")
managedContext.performBlockAndWait { () -> Void in
do {
let results =
try managedContext.executeFetchRequest(fetchRequest)
self.images = results as! [Thumbnail]
} catch let error as NSError {
print("Could not fetch \(error), \(error.userInfo)")
}
}
collection.reloadData()
}
It works fine whenever I delete the app and rerun it. However, when the app is closed, it no longer has the capability to restore the images.
I still get -[Thumbnail imageData]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x13762d650 while running it. The highlighted code is class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate { on AppDelegate.swift
