The reason I was thinking that the [self release] is legal is
because the object is initially created with an instance method
that calls [super init] (not a convenience class method), and so it
seems to make sense that someone needs to release it too.
- (id)init
{
if (self = [super init])
{
//...
}
return self;
} You're not responsible for releasing yourself later, the original
caller is. If helps to arrange things in your head, keep in mind [self release]
is not the counterpart to [super init]. That is, "self" refers to an instance, "super" refers to a class. - Scott
