CCFiniteTimeAction::getDuration() EXC_BAD_ACCESS when creating a CCSequence - c++

Question

I was able to run this code without getting an error on the iPhone simulator. However, when I run it on my iPhone, I am getting a EXC_BAD_ACCESS error. Here is the code:
CCAnimate * explosionAnimate = CCAnimate::create(explosionAnimation);
CCCallFuncN * callFuncN = CCCallFuncN::create(this,callfuncN_selector(GameLayer::removeChildFromParent));
CCFiniteTimeAction * explosionSequence = CCSequence::create(explosionAnimate, callFuncN);
CCSprite * explosionSprite = CCSprite::createWithSpriteFrameName("explosion_frame_1");
addChild(explosionSprite);
explosionSprite->setPosition(point);
explosionSprite->runAction(explosionSequence);
}
void GameLayer::removeChildFromParent(CCNode * child)
{
child->removeFromParent();
}
The error occurs when CCSequence::create(...) is called. Debugging through CCSequence::create(...)
CCFiniteTimeAction* CCSequence::create(CCFiniteTimeAction *pAction1, va_list args)
{
CCFiniteTimeAction *pNow;
CCFiniteTimeAction *pPrev = pAction1;
while (pAction1)
{
pNow = va_arg(args, CCFiniteTimeAction*);
if (pNow)
{
pPrev = createWithTwoActions(pPrev, pNow);
}
else
{
break;
}
}
return pPrev;
}
I am seeing that "createWithTwoActions" get's called twice. That doesn't seem right. On the 2nd call to "createWithTwoActions". The error occurs within CCFiniteTimeAction, specifically at the getDuration() inline function:
inline float getDuration(void) { return m_fDuration; }
Any ideas why this would be occurring?

Answer 1

I was able to resolve the issue by calling CCSequence::create() like:
CCSequence::create(explosionAnimate, callFuncN, NULL);
instead of:
CCSequence::create(explosionAnimate, callFuncN);
I'm guessing this has to do with the nature of CCFiniteAction pointers and C++ variable length arguments.
