iOS UIWebView crash in "WebThread"

Tags:

uiwebview

Anyone able to help me out with this crash? It happens intermittently when switching back and forth between some UIWebView instances while they are loading.

The crash is often slightly different, but it's always a crash of the "WebThread" with a similar stack trace.

Here's the relevant parts of two crashes:

Is UIWebView deprecated?

As of iOS 12.0, 'UIWebView' has been explicitly marked as deprecated. Apple is encouraging developers to adopt WKWebView instead, which was introduced in iOS 8.0.

What does UIWebView mean?

Android is powered by Chrome. Mobile Safari UIWebView. The UIWebView is different from the ordinary Safari browser, as it is not a stand-alone browser, but merely browser functionality that is embedded in a third party app that allows the app to display content from the web.

Does WebView work on iOS?

WebView can be defined as an object which can display the interactive web content and load HTML strings within the iOS application for an in-app browser. It is an instance of the WKWebView class, which inherits the UIView class.

What is the difference between UIWebView and WKWebView?

Unlike UIWebView, which does not support server authentication challenges, WKWebView does. In practical terms, this means that when using WKWebView, you can enter site credentials for password-protected websites.

I see that you have iOs 5.0. Are the files that you're loading Office documents (docx, xls)?

If so, then your case is the same as mine. This problem reproduces only on systems with 5.0 (iPad and iPad 2 here), and happens when you try to stop UIWebView object before it finishes loading the file. Whether it's by calling stopLoading or loadRequest

This doesn't happen with txt files.

And if it does, it originates in WebThread starting from line:

#1  0x34912158 in -[QuickLookHandleAsDelegate connection:didReceiveData:lengthReceived:] ()

and jumping to some random pointers like:

#0  0x00000010 in 0x00000010 ()
