Question

I have a UITextView which I have created programmatically in the following code:

NSLog(@"creating the first blurb");
blurb = [[UITextView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 50)];
[blurb setText:total];
blurb.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor];

where blurb is defined as a UITextView in the @interface.

Here’s where I’m having the problem:

total is an NSString that is defined to get the text from a .txt file from a specified domain.
It is mutated as:

 NSString *url = @"https://sites.google.com/site/paloaltoapps/tbnappsource-password-blackr3d/Updates.txt";
 NSURL *urlRequest = [NSURL URLWithString:url];
 total = [NSString stringWithContentsOfURL:urlRequest encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding error:nil];

However, when I run the code, I get an instance of EXC_BAD_ACCESS thrown at the setText: line of the top code block.

I have tried printing total out using an NSLog statement, and that seems to work just fine.
Can anyone see what I’m doing wrong? Thanks.

try this… May be it lose reference……

total = [[NSString stringWithContentsOfURL:urlRequest encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding error:nil]copy];
