I am about to attach a menu reference created programmatically to a popup control. Is the menu reference freed when the control is disposed?

yes

Or do I have to release it by myself?


and yes.


MenuRef rMenu = NewMenu(...)		// retain count = 1;

SetControlPopupMenuHandle( hControl, rMenu );  // retain count = 2
		
// don't forget these
// SetControlMinimum( hControl, 0 );
// SetControlMaximum( hControl, CountMenuItems( rMenu ) );

ReleaseMenu( rMenu ) // retain count = 1


...
...
...
...
// later when window / dialog disposed of

// Either DisposeWindow( win ); // tears down controls in window // or DisposeControl( hControl ) // => Control releases menu, retain count = 0, menu dies.


Hope that helps,

Douglas
