Did you really mean "objects released while the last time their retain count was printed it was equal to..." as that's perfectly expected--releasing is just one perfectly normal way for the retain count to be decreased. In fact, an object being released after its retain count hits 0 is a bug. Or did you mean "objects dealloc'd while the last time their retain count was printed it was equal to..." because that would be curious. -- Scott Ribe scott_r...@elevated-dev.com http://www.elevated-dev.com/ (303) 722-0567 voice _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
