Re: To CFRelease or not to CFRelease a CFString in Spotlight Importer

I figured that the problem may be that the CFString is not being retained properly when using CFStringCreateWithFormat (or WithCString) so it gets deleted when I release it. This would be contrary to the documentation. I printed out the retain counts after creating the string, after appending it to the array and after releasing the string. With CFStringCreateCopy I get 2, 2, 1 and with CFStringCreateWithFormat I get 1,1,1 respectively. Neither of these makes sense but I made a separate test App and get the same numbers.

How are you creating the array? The retain count not changing when you add it to the array seems to indicate that you aren't using array callbacks that retain stuff added to the array. Other than that the retain count sequences seem reasonable.
