Thanks a lot for your comments. I have tried to set
setCacheMode:NSImageCacheNever, but that still left the file open.
But I have changed my code to use this now:
NSImage *result = [[NSImage alloc]
initByReferencingFile:[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:[theName
stringByDeletingPathExtension] ofType:@"png"]];
[result autorelease];
And this works!!! No more image files left open. That is definitely a bug in
Mac OS X 10.8.2, I can't believe this is intended behavior…
