the method that's alloc'ing an NSMutableString there, has a pointer passed to it when called, that points to some memory i previously malloc'ed. but that actual NSMutableString creation does not actually make use of that pointer. it's almost as if my previous malloc is messing with cocoa's use of malloc? or am i making that up?

Let's see what you're trying to pass to NSMutableString.

it's the method that contains the NSMutableString creation that has something passed to it, not the NSMutableString. when i alloc & init the string nothing is passed to it:

NSMutableString *str = [[NSMutableString alloc] init];

the method that that string creation is near the start of, gets the probably problematic malloc'd by me pointer passed to in one of the arguments, but is not used in the NSMutableString creation. later on in the method there's numerous appendString's to 'str' but those appends occur after the alloc, and from that backtrace it's the alloc that causing the crash right? i think so.

thanks, ben.
