  • 0

I’ve an app on the apple store and after the iOS6 update I’ve got hundred of crash report within MKMapView. I cannot manage to reproduce the crash on my devices. It looks like a problem with EAGLContext. We don’t use OpenGL in our app but we have more than one instances of MKMapView in different controller.
I’ve found a similar issue here iOS 6 app crashes in EAGLContext when displaying maps but they use OpenGL.

Here there is the backtrace:

    We were having a similar problem when user’s background our app just as we’re popping up a window that includes a map subview. The crash seemed to be happening due to the map using an openGL call while we’re backgrounded. We had to wrap the map subview creation in a check like the following:

    UIApplicationState appState = [[UIApplication sharedApplication] applicationState];
    if( (appState != UIApplicationStateBackground) && (appState != UIApplicationStateInactive))
    {
        // Do map subview initialization...
    }
    else
    {
        self.attemptedToLoadMap = YES;
    }

    We saved off the bool so that if the app comes back to the foreground we can add the subview in for display.

    You have to do this anytime you’re manipulating the map in a way that causes a re-draw operation (e.g., adding an annotation).
