If <some code> throws an exception won't that mean that <pool> is leaked? (and all of its contents up to that point too; applies to both of our code examples). Or is there some special handling of autorelease pools when an exception is thrown? If so, I wasn't aware of it - can you point to the relevant docs?

Genuinely trying to understand things better!

Or you could go with:

-(IBAction) Generate:(id) sender
{
        for (i = 0; i < count; i++)
        {
            NSAutoreleasePool* pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];

NSImage* tempSource = [[[NSImage alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:sPath[i]] autorelease]; // autorelease tempSource to ensure that we get cleaned up if anything in 'some code' throws an exception. // pool will automagically be released later if an exception does happen and [pool release] get bypassed.

                // some code
        
            [pool release];
        }
}
