It seems like assert is being called. Can you tell me a case that could be the cause? Also, this is a code I have been using for a long time, but recently it started crashing. Have there been any internal changes recently?

Please understand that the entire crash log cannot be attached for security reasons. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Have there been any internal changes recently?

Yes. There are internal changes happening all the time. I suspect you’re crashing now because your code is being used with a string that was bridged from Swift, whereas previously it was always seeing a native NSString, but it’s hard to say without more context.

I really need a crash report to assist you properly. Can you post a redacted one? Posting a Crash Report has advice on how redact a crash report while still preserving enough of the format for it to be useful.

Alternatively, can you post a snippet of code, including the actual string you’re using, that reproduces the crash?
