No, haven't filed anything yet. Thought I'd wait to see if anything like that existed first. My app has several tasks that collect data via a loop and display it on a table. Objects are retained as they're displayed so the objects don't have to be recalculated next time they're displayed. But if I received a low-memory warning, I could release that data, and recalculate it later if needed. Seems simple enough, but I don't know how to find out when memory is low. -Bill _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
