Hi,
Since the methods -release, -retain and -autorelease are no-ops with GC only enabled, How do I release everything associated with an ivar (pointer to a class) in AppController?
Currently I'm doing it by setting this pointer as nil. Is it ok?

Also when I follow certain steps, this pointer gets a lot of memory attached, down the line. which gets released (when I set it to nil) as per Obj-Alloc instrument. But when following another certain steps, this memory doesn't get released (when setting this pointer nil), why? With GC only enabled this should get freed up.

Thanks,
Nick
