Objective-C woes: cellForRowAtIndexPath crashes - iphone

Question

I want to the user to be able to search for a record in a DB. The fetch and the results returned work perfectly. I am having a hard time setting the UItableview to display the result tho. The application continually crashes at cellForRowAtIndexPath. Please, someone help before I have a heart attack over here. Thank you.

Answer 1

The problem may be to do with reference counting.
in - (void)searchBarSearchButtonClicked:(UISearchBar *)searchBar method, try either
self.tempString = [myGlobalSearchObject valueForKey:#"name"];
(assuming tempString is set to retain)
OR
tempString = [[myGlobalSearchObject valueForKey:#"name"] retain];
I would also advise doing some checking for nil values. i.e. what if [myGlobalSearchObject valueForKey:#"name"] == nil?
