However: the original issue was not resolved by this fix. I ran the
app through Instruments with ObjectAlloc and it shows that after
closing the document my NSDocument subclass instance is indeed
cleared. However, moving the original PDF document to the trash and
then emptying the trash, the document is still being reported as in
use. A closer look at the traces in ObjectAlloc shows that the
CGPDFDocument along with its CGPDFPage objects, which PDFKit creates
when it reads in the document from disk, are not released.
(PDFDocument's initWithURL: method calls
CGPDFDocumentCreateWithProvider.) I can get the CGPDFDocument's
address in ObjectAlloc, but when running thus, I can't pause the
application to get the info gc-roots listing. If I run a normal
debug session in Xcode, I don't know how to get the address for the
CGPDFDocument that underlies the PDFDocument. So it is difficult to
find out what is holding on the the CGPDFDocument (and/or its pages).
Why can't you pause the program in Xcode? Because it is running in
Instruments?
Try running gdb from the command line:
gdb /path/to/your/built.app/Contents/MacOS/appname
Then:
attach <pid>
Where <pid> is the process id of your running application.
Can you use one of Instrument's file monitoring instruments to get a
backtrace of when that particular file on disk was opened?
