I did what you did and got the result you did. Puzzled, I looked at
the default format of the nib. It was pre 10.2. Change the nib file
format to 10.2 and later, and the menu leaks I described appear
immediately.

Hi,
I'm not able to reproduce this at least with the stock Xcode
document-based application template and populating the
MyDocument.nib with several NSPopupButtons. Running leaks with
MallocStackLogging turned on doesn't indicate any NSMenus leaking
after opening and closing documents.

I have run into what appears to be a major leak problem with
NSMenus attached to NSPopupButtons instantiated from nibs.
My app uses several nib files each of which has a window containing
a variable numbers of views (including several instances of
NSPopupButton). Each nib is managed by a window controller and its
window and views are loaded through a call to
initWithWindowNibName. The window is released when the window
controller is closed. ObjectAlloc shows that the window and all its
associated objects are released *except* the NSMenus (and objects
that belong to them) that were attached to the popupbuttons. My
code does nothing that I know of to retain any of these.
This behavior is completely consistent in all nib files that I load
and dispose of this way. I'm using the 10.2 and later nib format,
and compiling and running under 10.3.4, though as far as I can tell
the problem affects all versions of Panther.
Is this a known bug, and does anyone know a way around it? Or is
there something special one is supposed to do to make sure menus
are released? Help appreciated.
