NSNumber crashing program

Question

HI,

Due to formatting issues, I'm converting floats to NSNumber in my iPhone app. Although it generates proper strings it crashes program after releasing the object.

I wrote simple program as console app for Mac OS X and same problem occurs. Can anybody advise how to solve that? Here is the code sample. All 3 messages are written to log and after that EXEC_BAD_ACCESS error occurs...

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>

int main (int argc, const char * argv[])
{
    NSAutoreleasePool * pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];

    NSString *FormattedValueString = [[NSString alloc] init];
    NSString *FormattedValueString1 = [[NSString alloc] init];



    NSNumber *myNumber = [[NSNumber alloc] initWithDouble:100.345];
    NSNumberFormatter *numberFormatter = [[NSNumberFormatter alloc] init]; 
    [numberFormatter setFormatterBehavior:NSNumberFormatterBehavior10_4];
    [numberFormatter setNumberStyle:NSNumberFormatterDecimalStyle]; 

    FormattedValueString = [myNumber stringValue];
    FormattedValueString1 = [numberFormatter stringFromNumber:myNumber];

    NSLog(FormattedValueString);
    NSLog(FormattedValueString1);

    [FormattedValueString release];
    [FormattedValueString1 release];
    [numberFormatter release];
    [myNumber release];

    NSLog(@"Everything OK");

    [pool drain];
    return 0;
}

Answer 1

FormattedValueString and FormattedValueString1 are both autoreleased and so do not need to be released manually. And you don't need to alloc/init the values at the start of the function; the assignment further down overwrites these values.
