Swift ensures that all properties of a derived class are initialised before calling its base class. The compiler will generate a warning. Just move the statement below the assignment to remove the warning. Compared to Java, this is safe.

This is a sample project to demonstrate how you can use a computed property to create a reusable function ("closure") that mimics a constant value. Think of it as a way to encapsulate both the data and the function it applies to.

How to trace and debug an iOS crash (Part 2)

Dead end

[Having reached a dead end][7], decided to take a look at the client side in an effort to understand more about the request/response cycle.

First thing was to enable logging for the headers and body of both the [request][1] and the [response][2].

> GET /foo HTTP/1.1  
> "Accept-Encoding" = gzip;  
> "Accept-Language" = [languages];  
> Range = "foo=0-10";

> "User-Agent" = "[App Bundle Id]/ (unknown, iPhone OS 4.3.3, iPad, Scale/1.000000)";

How to trace and debug an iOS crash (Part 1)

There has been a crash.

While preparing for an iOS release, observed a crash on an iPad (iOS 4.3.3, WiFi). The crash was fairly consistent to be considered random but once in a while, it would work as expected. On the other hand, an iPad 3 (iOS 5.1, WiFi/3G) wouldn't exhibit the same behaviour.

The crash was triggered at the completion block of an [AFHTTPRequestOperation][1] while parsing a (JSON) response with an empty body to a NSDictionary using [JSONKit][2].

This was an unexpected behaviour since an empty body response was not defined in the request/response contract.
