I couldn't find them on the main site... I don't know if anyone has kept those, but you can always go back in SVN and checkout previous versions. Browse SVN to see which tags were used (generally lib-major_minor_subminor, e.g. base-1_12_0): http://svn.gna.org/viewcvs/gnustep/libs/base/tags/ Hello Adam, Thanks for the advice. Still, I think it's good to have an archive with all GNUstep releases, IMHO. I found one such external archive here: http://debian.uni-duisburg-essen.de/misc/GNUstep/CoreAll/ . It could be used to create an official one - if you decide so. Thanks, Atanas ___ Gnustep-dev mailing list Gnustep-dev@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev
Re: New gui/back release?

There already a quite a few bug fixes in both that would justify a release already. And I hope to find the time to look at a few more bugs the next days. The last release was about two months ago, and that's a pretty good time frame to make a new release. ___ Gnustep-dev mailing list Gnustep-dev@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev
Memory Management
I'm debugging the NSSound stuff and have run into a bit of a problem with memory management and the whole RETAIN/RELEASE stuff... I'm sure my probably has do to with being a novice. Anyway, in the -dealloc method of NSSound I call RELEASE(_data) and right after it [nameDict removeObjectForKey: _name]. The dictionary nameDict contains as a key the sound name and as a value the NSSound object associated with it. Well, whenever this method is called it will go ahead and call NSSound's -dealloc again which in turn sends another call out to RELEASE(_data). As you can imagine it blows up at this point. So my question is: Would adding a RETAIN(self) just before the call to [nameDict removeObjectForKey: _name] solve this issue? Anything else? This seems to do the trick, but I'm wondering if it's correct. Thanks Stefan ___ Gnustep-dev mailing list Gnustep-dev@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev
