Re: iOS 9: Adding CALayer to self.view.layer causes EXC_BAD_ACCESS

I've wondered about this before, but maybe some Objective-C runtime experts know.

Does writing directly to the ivar backing a property bypass the ARC features of the property. For example, will a strong property be retained if you write directly to the ivar?

If not, that's your problem.
