Apple's Sample App TopSongs has 26 Leaks, Ugh!

Hey all, I've been building an app for a client and part of it uses Apple's TopSongs sample app to download data on another thread.

Hi, I have a strange behaviour. I am using a rather heavy page (4000 nodes) meant to display a dispatch system for delivery operations. Every 30 sec.

Does this have to be released?

I've done a lot of research on when it's correct to release things, but it's all confusing to me. I think sometimes the Leaks program is off. Anyway... background is a UIImageView background.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"greenbackground.png"]; Do I have to release background? I never alloced it and it's not set as a property, so I...

[Cocoa] Leaks reports seemingly unrelated issues

I'm fairly new to Cocoa and Objective-C. Currently I'm developing a fairly basic application to test my knowledge and put some of the stuff I've been reading about into practice. Everything is working, but Leaks reports a number of issues. None of these leaks seems to be directly applicable to code that I've written (I have read and tr...

Objective-C memory management issue

I've created a graphing application that calls a web service. The user can zoom & move around the graph, and the program occasionally makes a decision to call the web service for more data accordingly. This is achieved by the following process: The graph has a render loop which constantly renders the graph, and some decision logic which...

Is There a Time at which to ignore IDisposable.Dispose?

Certainly we should call Dispose() on IDisposable objects as soon as we don't need them (which is often merely the scope of a "using" statement). If we don't take that precaution then bad things, from subtle to show-stopping, might happen. But what about "the last moment" before process termination? If your IDisposables have not been...

Memory not being freed, causing giant memory leak

I've also tried free(result.values) in place of that, but that is not desired as that deletes my string. Edit 2: I'll try writing a stack destructor. Edit 3: Gotcha. Thanks DeadMG, writing a destructor that fre...

Or is c destroyed, but the memory remains allocated, with no way to access it/get it back exce...

Element.replace() leaks DOM nodes

I'm trying to replace a DOM element (a div) using Prototype's Element.replace() operation. It seems to do the replacement OK, but leaks a single DOM node in the process. I checked this with sIEve; all but one of the existing DOM elements is freed by the innerHTML="" bit. This is in turn leaking memory, which I can't afford in a long-runn...
