But what is the crash? EXC_BAD_ACCESS? If so, I wonder whether this is just a symptom of an elusive over-release elsewhere in your code. Does anything show up in Clang?

I would expect so. UINib caches the nib itself in memory, but the instances should go through a normal life cycle. (As always, make sure you heed the platform-specific guidance on IBOutlet memory management: https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/LoadingResources/CocoaNibs/CocoaNibs.html) It sounds like you still have something maintaining a strong reference to your control. (You remark that -dealloc is not called during deallocation of the view, which I take to mean you have verified that the control's superview is *actually* being deallocated. If you haven't verified that the superview is getting deallocated, you might be tilting at windmills by focusing on the control.) -- Conrad Shultz Synthetiq Solutions www.synthetiqsolutions.com _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
