Socket.io-client-swift: the manager and engine are being released

Created on 7 Feb 2018 · 1Comment · Source: socketio/socket.io-client-swift

On my node backend server, it says that something connected when I run this, but then I get the error below and if I try emitting events, it says the other error below

swift code:

import UIKit
import SocketIO

class ViewController: UIViewController {

@IBOutlet weak var messagesBody: UITextView!
@IBOutlet weak var newMessageInput: UITextField!
@IBOutlet weak var newMessageSubmit: UIButton!

var socket:SocketIOClient!

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()

    let manager = SocketManager(socketURL: URL(string: "http://localhost:3000/chat.html?name=developer&room=test")!, config: [.log(true), .compress])
    self.socket = manager.socket(forNamespace: "/")

    establishSocketConnection()

    newMessageSubmit.addTarget(self, action: #selector(sendNewMessage), for: .touchUpInside)
}

override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
    super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
}

func establishSocketConnection() {
    self.socket.connect()
    self.socket.on("connect") { ( dataArray, ack) -> Void in
        print("connected to external server")
    }
}

func cloesSocketConnection() {
    self.socket.disconnect()
}

@objc func sendNewMessage() {
    let newMessageContent = newMessageInput.text!
    print("Sending message..." + newMessageContent)
    self.socket.emit("createMessage", newMessageContent)
}
}

main error:
