PFUser subclass fails on 1.14.0

[batkov]

Hi,

After update to 1.14.0 I'm experiencing constant crash when trying to work with subclass of PFUser.

Actually there is no subclass:
[MyUser currentUser] returns PFUser instance

After I rolled back to 1.13.0 everything works as is.

[batkov]

I do following after didFinishLaunching

[MyUser registerSubclass];
[Parse initializeWithConfiguration:]

[nlutsenko]

@batkov, does your MyUser class conform to PFSubclassing?
There is a requirement on this, where the classes are not registered automatically, unless they expose the fact that they conform to PFSubclassing, which is a required step for making subclasses of PFObject/PFUser/PFInstallation.

Confirmed broken, I've subclassed PFUser as User and I get this error:
-[PFUser isComplete]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x7faf08c8a4e0
isComplete is a custom field in my subclass.

@nlutsenko If MyUser subclass PFUser, you can't redefine the PFSubclassing implementation.

[nlutsenko]

@iStopped, you can't redefine the implementation, but you can declare the fact that you conform to PFSubclassing, which is a requirement for PFObject/PFUser/PFInstallation subclasses.
I've just tested the following MyUser implementation and it works like a charm:

MyUser.h

#import <Parse/Parse.h>

@interface MyUser : PFUser <PFSubclassing>

@property (nonatomic, assign) BOOL isComplete;

@end

MyUser.m

#import "MyUser.h"

@implementation MyUser

@dynamic isComplete;

@end

AppDelegate.m

NSLog(@"%@", [MyUser currentUser]);
NSLog(@"%@", [[MyUser currentUser] class]);
NSLog(@"%d", [[MyUser currentUser] isComplete]);

[nlutsenko]

The whole thing here is that you shouldn't be required to, you are right.
I am going to send a patch in few minutes that fixes this altogether without a need for workaround.

[CiraciNicolo]

@nlutsenko I'm talking about swift, you can't do that in swift. Sorry for the misunderstanding

[nlutsenko]

1.14.1 is live now (you might want to run pod repo update if you are using CocoaPods for dependency management).
Would be great if you guys could validate that all of this works now.

[CiraciNicolo]

It is working, thanks. 👍

@nlutsenko Crashalytics says 800+ crashes on my beta build yet I never experienced any. Are these hard crashes? Also I never subclass anything, does PFUser use this class?

[acegreen]

@nlutsenko Even after updating to 1.14.1 the issue resurfaces. No actual crash though, but crashalytics seems to catch something.

[acegreen]

It seems to happen multiple times in an instance because only Apple bots have this beta under review and now crashes are 943

[acegreen]

Well over a 1k now and this is just from Apple bots and myself. Whats going on here

[acegreen]

Just one last note: the version on my actual device with the same 1.14.1 doesn't experience any crash reports. Only the bots seem to cause issues
