Hi all,
I get this error:
System.Exception: Could not initialize an instance of the type 'MonoTouch.UIKit.UIImage': the native 'initWithContentsOfFile:' method returned nil.
It is possible to ignore this condition by setting MonoTouch.ObjCRuntime.Class.ThrowOnInitFailure to false.
at MonoTouch.Foundation.NSObject.InitializeHandle (IntPtr handle, System.String initSelector) [0x000b0] in /Developer/MonoTouch/Source/maccore/src/Foundation/NSObject2.cs:399

But only on a real device, not in the simulator. So best bet is that somewhere the filename case is wrong, or it might call Bundleresource instead of FileResource. I checked all filenames, and they seem to be OK. I checked multiple levels of the exception data to find any indication of the filename that is missing or is giving a problem. But as this is loaded async, settings breakpoints and debug messages did not help.
I checked if all files are set to BundleResource, and they are referred to by using ImageSource.FromFile (image-name)
Who is giving me a hint which image or resource could give me this trouble?
