[_LSDefaults sharedInstance]: unrecognized selector sent to class 0x20cbf3aa0

Question

I recently up-graded the codebase to Xcode11.3, getting this error on launch without detailed logs:

2019-12-18 15:18:40.461627+0530 XXXXX[2485:622148] +[_LSDefaults sharedInstance]: unrecognized selector sent to class 0x20cbf3aa0
2019-12-18 15:18:40.462868+0530 XXXXX[2485:622148] *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '+[_LSDefaults sharedInstance]: unrecognized selector sent to class 0x20cbf3aa0'

libc++abi.dylib: terminating with uncaught exception of type NSException

Not sure what is wrong here, Is there any way I can get the actual class in code for this '0x20cbf3aa0'?

Note: This is only happening on Physical devices running iOS > 13

Answer 1

I found the root cause:

Added NSSetUncaughtExceptionHandler to find the following stack trace.

Observing the crash log at line 7 indicates that it's using ONIMethodId's method invokeWithTarget

After that I inspected symbols (command - nm frameworkBinary ) for all my 3rd party frameworks, I got to know one of my framework was using this method which was eventually calling _LSDefaults private method. And that method has been deleted from iOS >= 13.0 SDK.

I raised this to my 3rd party vendor and they'll provide an updated framework for the same.

Thanks to everyone for comments and watching the issue, posting the answer so that it can help anyone else facing the same issue in future.

Answer 2

I can help you if You post the code,but was others noted, should be a no=n-apple call. (ONIMehtodId is not form apple)

pls attach a list of external frameworks are You using in Xcode.
