Not creating address book object

Question

I have implemented the code to get contact list form address book. For that I have used this code

ABAddressBookRef addressBook = ABAddressBookCreate( );
CFArrayRef allSources = ABAddressBookCopyArrayOfAllPeople( addressBook );
CFIndex nPeople = ABAddressBookGetPersonCount( addressBook );

and when this code is executing then my app is crashing and in crash report I got that

Exception Type:  EXC_BREAKPOINT (SIGTRAP)
Exception Codes: 0x0000000000000001, 0x000000000000defe
Crashed Thread:  5

And I am testing on iPhone 3GS with ios 6.0.

So how I fix this bug?

When I read the title, I thought OP was aaking how *not* to create an address book... — , Aug 18 '12 at 06:24

This is deprecated in ios 6.0.

Use this code ,it will give you the objects list.

ABAddressBookRef addressBook = ABAddressBookCreate(); 
ABRecordRef source = ABAddressBookCopyDefaultSource(addressBook);
NSArray *persons = (NSArray *)(ABAddressBookCopyArrayOfAllPeopleInSourceWithSortOrdering(addressBook, source, kABPersonSortByFirstName));
