Question

I am trying to use camera on iPad and I have to use UIPopoverController on iPad for this. I have been getting following error no matter UIPopoverController declared strong!

*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSGenericException', reason: '-[UIPopoverController dealloc] reached while popover is still visible.'

Following is my code. Could anyone please tell me what am I doing wrong? I have went through most of related questions on SO but most of them says declare UIPopoverController strong that I am already doing!

#import "ImagePickerController.h"

@interface ImagePickerController()
    @property(nonatomic, strong) UIPopoverController *popoverController;
@end

@implementation ImagePickerController

@synthesize imageName;
@synthesize popoverController;

- (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning
{
    // Releases the view if it doesn't have a superview.
    [super didReceiveMemoryWarning];
}

- (void)viewDidUnload
{
    [super viewDidUnload];
}

#pragma mark - UIImagePickerController Delegate

-(void) captureImageFromCamera:(UIViewController*)view
{

        UIImagePickerController *imagePickerController = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
        imagePickerController.delegate = self;
        self.popoverController = [[UIPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:imagePickerController];
        self.popoverController.delegate = self;
        [self.popoverController presentPopoverFromRect:view.view.bounds inView:view.view permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny animated:YES];
}

- (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info 
{
    [picker dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}

- (void)imagePickerControllerDidCancel:(UIImagePickerController *)picker 
{
    [picker dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}

- (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingImage:(UIImage *)image editingInfo:(NSDictionary *)editingInfo
{
[picker dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}

#pragma mark - UIPopoverController Delegate

- (void)popoverControllerDidDismissPopover:(UIPopoverController *)popoverController
{

}

- (BOOL)popoverControllerShouldDismissPopover:(UIPopoverController *)popoverController
{
    return YES;
}

@end

I couldn’t resolve my issue but this worked like a charm on iOS 5 as well. Thanks to http://www.techotopia.com!
