Shared App Group NSUserDefaults no longer working

Hi,


I have spent 8 hours on this alreay. So I not posting recklessly.


My app was working fine prior to 4 months ago. I had an app extention that showed scheduled events from the app. Either a 9.x release changed things or when I adding a new device it messed with my portal entitlements/provisioning. I ran thru an online tutorial that guides one quickly to set up app groups and nsuserdefaults to see if I could get it to work with a clean slate. It can be seen by following link at the bottom. Basically I got the app working and the app can send the data to the shared group and read it back when the app goes active again. The extentsion never reads anything but zero from the Defaults address pointer.


I was/am running this on iphone with 9.3.2 and now I am using XCode 8 Beta.


Is there a better end to end tutorial that will get me a working extension with shared defaults thru app groups ?

Is there a debugging checklist for shared app groups ?

Is there a known issue with later 9X Ios with shared app groups ?



Thanks,

A
