Howdy all, first-time poster here. I'm pretty new to Objective-C and it's associated run-time environment, so I apologize if this is a total newbie question that has been answered before (I couldn't find anything, but I might not know where to look.)
My problem is this: I have an NSTimer which I set up in my NSView's -awakeFromNib method. Also in -awakeFromNib, I set create an NSDate object as part of the NSView. This all works fine. The problem is, when my timer fires, if I try to do anything at all with the NSDate object I created before, the program chokes. Here's the relevant portion of the code (I've stripped out what appears to be irrelevant; if anyone wants to see more, that's fine.)

Your NSDate object (lastUpdate) is getting autoreleased. Read the Cocoa memory management guidelines and commit them to memory.
