xcode - CGContextSaveGState: invalid context 0x0 Error only on device

Question

Update: I am using XCode 7 Beta with Swift 2.0

When I try to run my app on an iPhone I get these 3 errors:

<Error>: CGContextSaveGState: invalid context 0x0. If you want to see the backtrace, please set CG_CONTEXT_SHOW_BACKTRACE environmental variable.
<Error>: CGContextTranslateCTM: invalid context 0x0. If you want to see the backtrace, please set CG_CONTEXT_SHOW_BACKTRACE environmental variable.
<Error>: CGContextRestoreGState: invalid context 0x0. If you want to see the backtrace, please set CG_CONTEXT_SHOW_BACKTRACE environmental variable.

When I enable to CG_CONTEXT_SHOW_BACKTRACE variable I get this:

                                    <main+164>

I'm not sure how to interpret this, I am not using any CoreGraphics content in my code, and the other similar questions had answers that did not work for me. I understand it can be difficult to help debug without code, but I can't figure out what code is related to this, so if anyone has an idea I can post more code.

Answer 1

From my experimentation, this seems to be due to defining UIViewControllerBasedStatusBarAppearance in Info.plist.

It happens on iOS 9 (beta & GM) but not on 8.4.
