NSTimer retain and release questions

Subject: NSTimer retain and release questions
From: Kyle <email@hidden>

The documentation for this autoreleased method:

+ (NSTimer *)scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:(NSTimeInterval)seconds target:(id)target selector:(SEL)aSelector userInfo:(id)userInfo repeats:(BOOL)repeats

states: "If repeats is NO, the timer will be invalidated after it fires."

If I call this autoreleased method, and set repeats to YES, does that imply I do not need to retain the object if I want to invalidate it later? In other words, is this autoreleased method autoreleased only when repeats is NO, otherwise it is not autoreleased?

Just want to make sure I understand it correctly.  Thanks in advance!
