The implementation of the property will manage the retaining and the releasing. You only need to worry about sending retain and release messages manually if you access the instance variable directly (not through a property). The only place you would typically need to do that would be in your dealloc method.


 Although in dealloc

        self.myProperty = nil;

would also work, which has the added benefit that you'll notice when you're talking to an object that has already been released, because then all its object ivars will be NIL.
