What is rootNode? Is it a Cocoa class, or your own class? If it is
a Cocoa class, it follows the memory management rules, so you
shouldn't be having this problem unless you are explicitly and
prematurely releasing the NSArray.
If rootNode is your own class, does it have a setter method for the
"children" property? If so, is it following proper memory management
rules (in particular, retaining the new value for that property)?
As has been mentioned, [NSArray
arrayWithObjects:devices,folders,playlists,nil] returns an
autoreleased object -- maybe that's the only hint you really needed...
