Fix: App crashes when tapping more and share button in the Reader Details screen #20490

Fixes #20487

Description

This PR fixed a bug that crashed the app when the user taps the more or share button in the Reader Details screen. This bug is only affecting iPad users.

Root Cause

This is the exact change in #20363 that caused the crash.

    func barButtonItem(with image: UIImage, action: Selector) -> UIBarButtonItem {
        let image = image.withRenderingMode(.alwaysTemplate)
-      let button = UIButton(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 44.0, height: image.size.height))
-      button.setImage(image, for: UIControl.State())
-      button.addTarget(self, action: action, for: .touchUpInside)
- 
-       return UIBarButtonItem(customView: button)
+      return UIBarButtonItem(image: image, style: .plain, target: self, action: action)
    }

The code above removes usage of UIButton when creating a UIBarButtonItem, so the action param is now passed to a UIBarButtonItem instead of a UIButton. But the sender param of the action handlers was not updated accordingly.

// This method can be found in "ReaderDetailViewController.swift".
@objc private func didTapMenuButton(_ sender: UIButton) {
   // ...
}

The type of sender param type should be UIBarButtonItem instead of UIButton. The compiler didn't catch this, and I didn't either.

At runtime, however, the sender param type was UIBarButtonItem, which passed through several methods until it reached the following code.

// Can be found in `ReaderShowMenuAction.swift` and `PostSharingController.swift`.
if let presentationController = alertController.popoverPresentationController {
    presentationController.permittedArrowDirections = .any
    presentationController.sourceView = anchor
    presentationController.sourceRect = anchor.bounds
}

The presentationController.sourceView's type is UIView and anchor's type at runtime is UIBarButtonItem, thus the crash.

I find it spooky that this PR keeps failing in AccoutSettingsServiceTests however I don't see how the changes here could have affected those tests.

Moreover, there might be something dodgy down in the reporting layer, because looking at the logs we can see that the test eventually succeeds after retrying automatically

I see no reason to hold merging this PR because of that.

tiagomar · 2023-04-12T12:24:41Z

Hey @mokagio @salimbraksa , testUpdateFailure() is the least reliable unit test we have but in this case we have a 100% reliable test failing which is testShowShareSheet() and, for some unknown reason, it doesn't appear in the console logs with the red cross. However, we can see it listed among the Failing tests. So we'll need to either fix something in the code or fix the test.

Failing tests:
  AccountSettingsServiceTests.testUpdateFailure()
  AccountSettingsServiceTests.testUpdateFailure()
  ReaderDetailCoordinatorTests.testShowShareSheet()

There were conflicts on `Podfile` and `Podfile.lock` because `release/22.1` and `trunk` both changed the Gutenberg version. As usual, I resolved them with `git checkout --theirs`, keeping the value from `trunk` under the assumption that the latest version of Gutenberg, 1.93.0-alpha2, is what `trunk` needs to work and that if the 1.92.1 hotfix hasn't already been integrated in the latest release, it will be soon and the Gutenberg team will followup with a new version update on `trunk`. There was also a conflict on the `RELEASE-NOTES.txt` that GitHub picked up with its more refined conflicts engine and that auto-merge didn't address properly but that I manually fixed. That was due to `release/22.1` adding new release note entries – which will not make it into the App Store release notes – in the 22.1 section and `trunk` having #20128 editing that section, too. #20128 was meant to land on `release/22.1` but I forgot to update the base branch after starting the code freeze 🤦‍♂️😭 ``` <<<<<<< release/22.1 -- Incoming Change * [**] Add a "Personalize Home Tab" button to the bottom of the Home tab that allows changing cards visibility.

Notice that since this landed in the release branch after code freeze, the App Store release notes won't include it.
