on(event:runInBackground:execute:) Never Executes

[vincentesm]

Hello,

I am facing an issue similar to the one described in SDK Ready Not Firing #512 where the on(event:runInBackground:execute:) method does not return with the .sdkReady event when the SDK is initialized.

I am noticing that the clientManager is nil in the DefaultSplitClient when the on(event:runInBackground:execute:) is called. DefaultSplitClient.swift Line 80.

On a brief look into the cause, the method does call back if I remove the weak reference from clientManager in the same file. DefaultSplitClient.swift Line 25. I realize this may not be the fix, but I hope that it is helpful in debugging.

Please let me know if I can provide any other details. Thank you.

Hi @vincentesm and @jsahoo,
Thank you for the info.
Just to be sure, did you try version 2.24.7?
Also it would be good if you can provide you're integration code so that we can test that scenario.

I am also experiencing this issue on the latest version 2.25.1

Any update on this?

Hi,
I was able to reproduce this issue when there is only a local reference to the factory in the method where it is instantiated. If you’re encountering the same situation, you can work around the issue by maintaining a module reference.

This particular comment hinted at a solution: #512 (comment)

So, the TL;DR is that if you don't have a strong reference to SplitFactory, that may be the reason why you are not getting events fired.
