Nick Zitzmann has already pointed out that item is overreleased, so it is probably being dealloc'ed prematurely. I suspect this in turn is causing menuController (which is autoreleased) to be dealloc'ed prematurely, since item had the only strong reference to it. Note that delegates are not retained, so [menu setDelegate:menuController] does not retain menuController and in fact is now holding on to a bad pointer. I'm only guessing here, but you can test the theory by putting a breakpoint or NSLog in SampleController's dealloc method.
Do you see any error messages in the Run console? --Andy _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
