deactivateTopApplicationAnimated: Crashes SpringBoard #1

Description

@Tyr0

Calling [[DSDisplayController sharedInstance] deactivateTopApplicationAnimated:NO] crashes SpringBoard with syslog reading:

Feb 25 15:04:26 My-Elastic-Eye SpringBoard[4194]: From app display identifier is: com.apple.mobiletimer

Feb 25 15:04:26 My-Elastic-Eye com.apple.SpringBoard[4194]: terminate called throwing an exception

My fix for this was to use the following instead:

SBUIController *aUIController = [objc_getClass("SBUIController") sharedInstanceIfExists];

if (aUIController) {
if ([aUIController respondsToSelector:@selector(clickedMenuButton)]) {
[aUIController clickedMenuButton];
}
}
