I have a timer that continues calling a method that for the moment
(testing
purposes) only contains:
NSArray *tmp = [NSArray arrayWithArray:animatingTilesArray];
The time is setup like this:
animationTimer = [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:0.5
target:self
selector:@selector(doAnimation:) userInfo:nil repeats:YES];
When I run this in ObjectAlloc, it shows that every instance of the
'tmp'
array created above is 'created and still living'. Considering it's an
auto-released array shouldn't there only be zero or one still living?
If you are only running a timer, you may be running in to the issue
described at:
<http://www.cocoabuilder.com/archive/message/cocoa/2008/12/16/225553>
The run loop autorelease pool is not released for timer events.
If so, you should see all your objects disappear as soon as you do a
UI action in your app, like click the mouse.
You have two possible solutions:
* Periodically post an event to your app.
* Create and release an NSAutoreleasePool in your timer method.
Enjoy,
Peter.
