I'm at a loss when it comes to releasing CALayers. Since you can only
create a layer with [CALayer layer] (docs advise not to use [[CALayer
alloc] init]), I would assume that the instance is automatically
qutoreleased. However, after looking through apple's sample code on a
menu built with core animation, the layers were autoreleased in the
dealloc method (this doesn't work too well if the layers aren't
instance variables). Additionally, when I tried releasing the layers
after I was done with them (after I added them to a superlayer),
sometimes it would freak out and crash, and other times it wouldn't
mind.
Basically, here's my question: When (if ever) are you supposed to
(auto)release CALayers?
