The many postings on this subject got me looking at some code I wrote a while back, and now I'm wondering whether it is potentially wrong.

Here's the code and a question (as a comment):

- (id)init:(int)vectorLength {
if (nil != (self = [super init])) {
int *theArray = (int*)malloc((size_t)(vectorLength*sizeof(int)));
if (theArray != NULL) {
// do stuff
}
else {
[super dealloc]; // should this be [super release] rather than [super dealloc]?
return nil;
}
}

return self;
}
