hey there

i have written a chat client as part of an app i am developing that uses a
subclassed NSTextView to draw bubbles around messages, in the iChat style.
this works well for me and a few hundred other users, except for one who
reports that any time a message is entered the application crashes. the top
of the crash report is below:

OS Version:      Mac OS X 10.5.7 (9J61)

i am not sure how to go about fixing this, can anyone suggest where the
autorelease message is sent? the tiled bubble images are held in NSArrays
and the bubble drawing code in BubbleTextView is shown below. i cannot
understand why the error would occur for this user particularly, can anyone
see something wrong with the code?

- (void)drawBubbleAroundTextInRect:(NSRect)rect user:(User *)user outgoing:(
BOOL)outgoing

{

NSArray *balloon;

NSAffineTransform *aft = [NSAffineTransform transform];

if (outgoing) {

balloon = blueBalloon;

 // if outgoing, flip the co-ordinates for the balloon

[aft scaleXBy:-1 yBy:1];

[aft translateXBy:-(2 * rect.origin.x + rect.size.width) yBy:0];

[aft concat];

} else {

...

}

 // adjust the paragraph rectangle to contain the balloon

NSRect balloonRect = NSMakeRect(rect.origin.x - kBalloonPadLeft,

rect.origin.y - kBalloonPadTop,

rect.size.width + kBalloonPadLeft + kBalloonPadRight,

rect.size.height + kBalloonPadTop + kBalloonPadBottom);

NSDrawNinePartImage(balloonRect,

[balloon objectAtIndex:0],

[balloon objectAtIndex:1],

[balloon objectAtIndex:2],

[balloon objectAtIndex:3],

[balloon objectAtIndex:4],

[balloon objectAtIndex:5],

[balloon objectAtIndex:6],

[balloon objectAtIndex:7],

[balloon objectAtIndex:8],

NSCompositeSourceOver, 1.0, YES);

 [aft invert];

[aft concat];


        // now draw the icon, will not be flipped

NSImage *icon;

if ([user icon]) {

icon = [[NSImage alloc] initWithData:[user icon]];

[icon autorelease];

} else {

icon = [NSImage imageNamed:@"PrefAccount"];

}

NSPoint iconOrigin = NSMakePoint(balloonRect.origin.x - kIconBuffer -
kIconSize,

 balloonRect.origin.y + balloonRect.size.height);

if (outgoing) iconOrigin.x += kIconSize;

[icon compositeToPoint:iconOrigin operation:NSCompositeSourceOver];

 [aft invert];

[aft concat];

  // now draw the username

NSRect usernameRect;

NSSize usernameSize = [[user name] sizeWithAttributes:usernameAttributes];

NSRect ourFrame = [self frame];

if (outgoing) {

CGFloat endPoint = ourFrame.origin.x + ourFrame.size.width - kIconBuffer;

CGFloat startPoint = MAX(ourFrame.origin.x + kIconBuffer, endPoint -
usernameSize.width);

usernameRect = NSMakeRect(startPoint, iconOrigin.y, endPoint - startPoint,
kUsernameHeight);

} else {

usernameRect = NSMakeRect(iconOrigin.x, iconOrigin.y,

  MIN(usernameSize.width, ourFrame.size.width - kIconBuffer),

  kUsernameHeight);

}

[[user name] drawInRect:usernameRect withAttributes:usernameAttributes];

}
