There's no such thing as an object with retain count 0; the object would have been dealloc'ed the instant its retain count dropped below 1, and after that any use of a pointer to it will crash. What you're seeing is an object pointer with a value of nil. (Messaging nil always returns 0 / false / nil.) So you need to look at why your instance variable 'count' has a nil value at that point. Try setting breakpoints. —Jens_______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
