Instruments can give you the backtrace of every retain and release and autorelease call for that array object. What does it say? You can call +[NSAutoreleasePool showPools] from the debugger to log the autorelease pool stack to the console (check both the debugger console and Console.app). That may point out if your objects are stuck in an autorelease pool that hasn't been drained. -- Greg Parker gpar...@apple.com Runtime Wrangler _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
