Dear list, I have a very complex document based app. If I run the app compiled with garbage collection support, then I can open and close document windows without problems. With garbage collected disabled, opening and closing the document windows results in crashes. Clearly I have a memory management issue. My problem is that the crash report doesn't help me. Running in Xcode, the debugger drops out in NSApplicationMain with the following back trace:
#0 0x00007fff91380398 in objc_msgSend_vtable14 () No symbol table info available. #1 0x00007fff8ce33110 in CFRelease () No symbol table info available. #2 0x00007fff8ce5b5f0 in -[__NSArrayM dealloc] () No symbol table info available. #3 0x00007fff8bb06dd2 in -[NSObjectController _dealloc] () No symbol table info available. #4 0x00007fff8b8fb6a4 in -[NSArrayController _dealloc] () No symbol table info available. #5 0x00007fff8b9aa1bc in -[NSController dealloc] () No symbol table info available. #6 0x00007fff8b8a34d5 in -[_NSBindingInfo dealloc] () No symbol table info available. #7 0x00007fff8ce33110 in CFRelease () No symbol table info available. #8 0x00007fff8ce5b5f0 in -[__NSArrayM dealloc] () No symbol table info available. #9 0x00007fff8b838e7d in -[NSBinder _dealloc] () No symbol table info available. #10 0x00007fff8b838e1e in -[NSBinder dealloc] () No symbol table info available. #11 0x00007fff9138403c in (anonymous namespace)::AutoreleasePoolPage::pop () No symbol table info available. #12 0x00007fff8ce5bf75 in _CFAutoreleasePoolPop () No symbol table info available. #13 0x00007fff8ce634e4 in __CFRunLoopRun () No symbol table info available. #14 0x00007fff8ce62ae6 in CFRunLoopRunSpecific () No symbol table info available. #15 0x00007fff88bcd3d3 in RunCurrentEventLoopInMode () No symbol table info available. #16 0x00007fff88bd463d in ReceiveNextEventCommon () No symbol table info available. #17 0x00007fff88bd44ca in BlockUntilNextEventMatchingListInMode () No symbol table info available. #18 0x00007fff8b6363f1 in _DPSNextEvent () No symbol table info available. #19 0x00007fff8b635cf5 in -[NSApplication nextEventMatchingMask:untilDate:inMode:dequeue:] () No symbol table info available. #20 0x00007fff8b63262d in -[NSApplication run] () No symbol table info available. #21 0x00007fff8b8b180c in NSApplicationMain () Can anyone offer any hints or suggestions as to how I can better go about finding this memory problem? (By the way, the reason I want to switch off the garbage collector is that I get intermittent crashes to do with the garbage collector queue; googling revealed that others have seen these crashes and the consensus seemed to be, switch off garbage collection. In any case, I don't like the fact that I can't switch off garbage collection due to what must be a bug somewhere.)
