Well theres no way to know, unless it's specifically mentioned in the documentation, but it really shouldn't matter. If you need the object retain it, if you don't let someone else worry about it.

The last thread that I saw on this topic was dated sometime in 2004....if there is something more recent that I didn't find, I apologize up front... I realize nothing has probably changed as far as the API and the documentation to indicate autoreleased methods, however, can someone provide any insight as to how one knows if a method from a framework returns an autoreleased object?
