I can't replicate the issue. What could be the problem? Thanks a lot!
Answer
I was able to reproduce this today. To do this you need to:
- Open your app that is listening for changes
- Open the photos app, save a set of photos to your photo library from an iCloud shared album
- Go to the photos app, delete some of those photos
- Go again to the iCloud shared album and save again the some of the photos you deleted. You'll see this condition happen.
I found an updated code that seems to work better to handle the updating behavior here: https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/Photos/Reference/PHPhotoLibraryChangeObserver_Protocol/
But it still doesn't handle this situation nor when the indexes to be deleted are bigger (i.e. Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInternalInconsistencyException', reason: 'attempt to delete item 9 from section 0 which only contains 9 items before the update'). I created this updated version of this code that deals with this better and hasn't crashed for me anymore so far.
func photoLibraryDidChange(changeInfo: PHChange!) {
// Photos may call this method on a background queue;
// switch to the main queue to update the UI.
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue()) {
// Check for changes to the list of assets (insertions, deletions, moves, or updates).
if let collectionChanges = changeInfo.changeDetailsForFetchResult(self.assetsFetchResult) {
// Get the new fetch result for future change tracking.
self.assetsFetchResult = collectionChanges.fetchResultAfterChanges
if collectionChanges.hasIncrementalChanges {
// Get the changes as lists of index paths for updating the UI.
