Yes, thanks Scott, that does make sense. With dictionaryWithCapacity, you have not used [NSMutableDictionary alloc], so this is a good sign that it is an autoreleasing setup right?


Right.

Routines that return things you do have to release yourself include alloc, copy, mutableCopy, (and related routines like copyWithZone: ) and (of course) retain.

If you call just about any other routine that returns a new object, that object should have been autoreleased as well. When you set up your own methods, if they create objects they should autorelease them before returning them too
