well... i'm not sure i'd use the word confused, as i do understand
memory management, both in general and in cocoa. but i do have a bug
somewhere that causes crashes sometimes when i quit by app and
attempt to release IOKit/USB "resources".
I don't think this problem is down to confusion over memory management
necessarily. It could easily be the result of an accidental overrun
when writing to a heap-based buffer.
I would try enabling some of the malloc debugging features that you
can find in the "Environment" section of the malloc() man page. You
could also use Instruments to watch where that block is allocated and
released and work at it from that angle.
Kind regards,
Alastair.
