You should release it when you're done with it. Granted, you can probably get away with it here, under a reasonable set of assumptions: employeeController actually retains it, rather than copying it, or just using it in the addObject method and not keeping a reference to it, and rearrangedObjects doesn't cause it to be released, and there's not some background thread that will modify employeeController and release it asynchronously. But it would be a terrible habit to get in to. (Note how many assumptions it relies on...) -- Scott Ribe scott_r...@elevated-dev.com http://www.elevated-dev.com/ (303) 722-0567 voice _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
