Hi all,
I am very new to Cocoa programming (but have programmed in C/C++ before) and
there is one thing I don't understand with alloc and release. Sometimes I see
code that alloc an object and release it within the same method, even though
it's clear that the object is still live and well.
For example:
-(IBAction)onButtonPressed
{
UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle...];
[alert show];
[alert release];
}
Why is the code decrementing the ref count even though the alert window is
still up?
Also, how do you know when you are decrementing ref count too soon? How do you
know which object method you call might increase the ref count of the object in
question?
Thanks!
