NSDatePicker leaking in graphical mode?

Hi list,

i have a strange behaviour when using a NSDatePicker in my application.

The NSDatePicker instance is set to the graphical view without time selection, to get a calendar view as seen in iPhoto on the bottom left.

when i programmatically set

[myDatePicker setCalendar:[[NSCalendar currentCalendar] autorelease]];
[myDatePicker setDate:(NSDate *)[NSCalendarDate calendarDate]];
[myDatePicker setDelegate:self; // self is an instance of the default document class MyDocument


( assumed there is an IBOutlet connected to the NSDatePicker named "myDatePicker" )

the NSDatePicker is leaking like hell.

Proof: If i comment out those lines, everything get's back to normal. no leaks.

In my application, the view that contains the NSDatePicker is programmatically added to a NSSplitView. Once the NSAnimation starts to 'move-in' the view, the number of leaks increase. Even when i manually drag the NSSplitView divider, the number increases.
It seems to me, there is a bug in NSDatePicker (and also in its cell class): every time the NSDatePicker needs display, it tries to set the date values on its cells. I guess they somehow retain the previous date value without releasing it.


Has anyone else recognized this? And is there anything i can do to prevent this issue?

I use the latest release of Xcode (version 2.3). The application is a universal binary and my development machine is PowerPC based.

Thanks in advance,


Oliver
