When init returns nil does it cause a leak

[Reza Farhad]

Hi all

we have an object that gets initialized like most other objects
-(id)init
{
        self = [ super init ];
        if ( self ){
                ...do something;
        }
        return self;
}

if [ super init ]  returns nil does this cause a leak, as the memory  
has already been created by calling alloc when trying to create the  
object

AnObject        *object = [[ AnObject alloc ] init ];

I am sure the answer is simple but this suddenly stumbled me.

Thanks

Reza
