Re: Okay, a stupid question about NSArrays...

When a NSArray is released, does that release the objects in the array as well? I would intuit that it does, but I can't find anything nailing this behaviour down. I really hate to ASSUME, but is my assumption that it releases all objects it has in it a correct one?

To my knowledge, this is how it goes:
When you add an object to an array, the array retains that object.
When you remove an object from an array, the array releases that object.

So, yes :)
