And just how does one go about doing that? The only way I can see is to use an owner’s dealloc to call something like “wouldLikeToDealloc” on the owned object. From the literature, it appears that NSTimer is the main offender in this regard. I frequently use generic NSViewControllers and NSWindowControllers which have no link to the controller containing the timer.
