Is there any issue issuing explicit release when using garbage collection with Leopard and Obj-c 2.0?
I've become aware that I have lots of memory not being freed within my application. I presume this is because its a tree structure with parent child pointers between the objects. If I drop the last reference to the tree, I presume the tree does not get garbage collected because each object has circular pointers between them, ie parent has references to children and each child has a reference to its parent. In this case, it seem that the appropriate course of action would be to call a specific method to forcibly release each node in the tree. Is this the proper approach? Should garbage collection somehow work anyway?
