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?

In general, objects that you add to an array aren't copied; rather, each object receives a retain message before its id is added to the array. When an object is removed from an array, it's sent a release message.
