Description

Using the following code:

  Ti.Contacts.showContacts({
    fields: ['email'],
    selectedProperty: function(e) {
      Ti.API.info('property selected');
    }
  });

This will crash the Contacts Picker if an email is selected when using a physical iphone. I think it has something to do with the fact that that the email labels are all "email" versus on the simulator, they are "home", "work", and "other". Here is the error that appears in the debugger at the time of the crash:

[ERROR] The application has crashed with an unhandled exception. Stack trace:

I also tried using the selectedPerson callback:

  Ti.Contacts.showContacts({
    selectedPerson: function(e) { 
      var person = e.person;
      var emails = person.email;
    }
  });

But that crashed as well with a different error:

    This is probably not the "correct" fix, but I was able to prevent it from crashing and return the correct email address with the following change:
    ContactsModule.m line 378

       
         if (CFlabel) {
           label = [NSString stringWithString:[[[TiContactsPerson multiValueLabels] allKeysForObject:(NSString*)CFlabel] objectAtIndex:0]];
           CFRelease(CFlabel);
         }
         else {
           label = @"none";
         }

    Hi,
    I have exactly the same problem. As you said, this comes from the 'email' label.
    I think this is when you synchronise your contacts with other systems like google for instance. All my contacts have 'email' labels instead of 'home', 'work' or 'other'.
    The ones that are directly created on the iPhone work well.

    One question: I would like to use your workaround but what is CFlabel ?

    Thanks !

  3. Guillaume 2011-04-15

    Sorry, I understood after that you modified directly the ContactModule class file.

    This still does not work for me.
    What's the process then ? I compiled directly in xcode with Device and Release. But then the only new directory was Release-iphonesimulator. I then took the app from this directly to load on my device. Is that the correct way to proceed ?

    Would be great if a fix was directly integrated in Titanium for next release.

  4. Guillaume 2011-04-15

    I am still trying to find a solution for this issue.
    I feel that the problem is similar to this one (#1342), which has been resolved in 1.5. The difference is that instead of having custom labels, we have a kind of default label 'email'.
    Any clue on how to fix that ? I did not manage to fix it with the solution provided.

  5. Stephen Tramer 2011-04-15

    OK, this has been reported often enough that I can't dismiss it as user error any more. Also, there's sample code now.

    We are having the same issue with address. It seems that any contact created from the iOS Maps App does not set the label on address. To test, using the following code on device. Click 'Test Contacts' and see if it crashes. If it does, look in the console to see what the last contact was. If it doesn't, do a maps search for any business, add as a contact, and then run again. Built with 1.6 running on 4.2, this consistently crashed the app. Then, change the new contacts address to 'other' and try again.

       var win = Titanium.UI.createWindow();
   var button = Ti.UI.createButton({
   width:150,
   height:50,
   title:'Test Contacts'
   });
   win.add(button);
   button.addEventListener('click', function(){
   var people = Titanium.Contacts.getAllPeople();
       for (var i = 0, all = people.length; i < all; i++) 
       {
           Ti.API.info('Working on contact '+i+', '+people[i].fullName);
           for (var label in people[i].email) {
               var addrs = people[i].email[label];
           Ti.API.info("Email: "+people[i].email[label]);
           }
           for (var label in people[i].address) {
               var addrs = people[i].address[label];
               for (var ii = 0; ii < addrs.length; ii++) 
               {
                   if (addrs[ii].Street != undefined && addrs[ii].Street.length > 1)
                   {
                       Ti.API.info("  address["+label+"]: "+addrs[ii].Street);
                   }
               }
           }
       }
       alert('Contacts Successfully Tested');
   });
   win.open();

    This issue needs to be resolved for us to release our app.
    We are still working on some other items to make the app ready but we need to know this is going to get some attention soon.

    Is there a plan or is this scheduled as a priority?

    Awesome - glad to see this has a resolution path!

    How can I relate milestones to builds available via the continuous builds page to know if a particular build includes the fix?

    Tested with Titanium SDK version: 1.7.0 (03/18/11 12:00 19be393) on
    Simulator 4.0
    iPad2 4.3

  11. John Hass 2011-05-03 This bug is still not fixed... Here is a link to the youtube video, I don't really have any way to prove it other then a video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xL2CX-UbX00

  14. tom quas 2011-05-10 can we raise the priority to a reasonable level?
  15. Stephen Tramer 2011-05-17 Finally put this to bed. Technically an Apple bug, but they'd never fix it.
  16. Thomas Huelbert 2011-05-24 closing against verizon iphone4 (4.2.8) and iphone3 (3.1.3) [INFO] Titanium SDK version: 1.7.0 (05/24/11 00:41 3982f4e...)
  17. Dawson Toth 2011-06-08 This still seems to be happening with contacts synced with gmail. I've attached "gmailContactsCrashLog.log".

    Additional Notes from Customer

    Gmail assigns them the label of 'email' and this crashes the app. However when you manually assign a contact a new email address and give it the custom field of 'email' it works. This makes me think that gmail is adding in additional blank fields or such not just 'email'.
  19. Stephen Tramer 2011-06-21 Finally closing this bug for good will involve testing every single possible email/contacts configuration available on iOS. Will need QA's assistance to resolve.
  20. Stephen Tramer 2011-06-21 Time includes budgeting for some, but not all, testing. We're going to have to be very rigorous.
  21. Eric Merriman 2011-07-07 Could not reproduce with Jon Alter's test code above. Will try additional scenarios to best ensure the fix.
  22. Natalie Huynh 2011-07-08 Tested with iPad 2 4.3.3 with 1.7.2.v20110706211037 with Exchange mail and device contact, did not encounter the crash
  23. Eric Merriman 2011-07-08 Verified the following: exchange account listings, gmail account contact listings with multi-value-fields, local contacts with multi-value fields including custom and default. Verified on iPhone 4, 4.3.3, iPad 2 4.3.3, iPhone 3G 3.1.3.
