Hmm... your app logic shouldn't be relying on exact retain counts. As long as the object is actually freed when it should be, don't sweat it. Internally, the system might be retaining it in all sorts of places.

Hi,

In my app the user can bring up an editor. When its window is inited I call a method that initialises an array that is an instance variable of the window controller. At the end of the init method, immediately before it returns, the retain count for that array is 1.

The next time the framework enters code in the window controller, on awakeFromNib, putting a break point there at the first line of code and then checking the retain count of the array gives a count of 4.

The array is bound to an NSArrayController, and when the controller awakes from NIB, the array, also there, already has a retain count of 4.

Anybody any ideas what causes the array to be retained these additional times?

Thanks,
António
