^This. The crash log clearly says "Freeing already free'd pointer”. If I had to
guess, I’d say that your code is failing to create an NSString from UTF-16 data
(for the reasons already described in this thread), and the failure-handling
code path of your code ends up double-releasing a string. (Which should be
impossible with ARC alone; are you calling CFString APIs anywhere?)
