Here's the contents of my thread's routine
{
NSAutoreleasePool * pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];
mEngine->Destretch(mAudioFileList, [uiOutputDirectory stringValue],
smpteIndex);
[pool release];
[NSThread exit];
}
In ->Destretch the only real allocation of Cocoa stuff is this
NSURL * url = [NSURL fileURLWithPath: filePath];
CFURLGetFSRef((CFURLRef)url, &output);
Does this need to be CFReleased some how?
Its not very exciting, though since its objective-c++, maybe that's a
factor. The stack trace looks like this:
0 objc_msgSend
1 ??
2 -[SFWindowController destretchWorkerThreadEntryPoint:]
3 forkTheadForFunction
4 _pthread_body
when I click on 2, it highlights the [pool release] line.
Any ideas? I'm a little lost
