Whoops, I thought that I'd also mention that I've run the code though the clang static analyzer and it doesn't report that there are any bugs. I'm also happy to post more code if it will help.

Thanks again!

Hi everyone, I'm auditing my app and the both the "leaks" command line tool and the Instruments tool are both reporting that I have NSString leaks. All of the leaks are coming from code similar to the following:

NSFont *ageStarTextFont = [NSFont fontWithName:@"Arial Bold" size:KRLesserDimensionOfRect(transientDrawingRect)/3];

I'm guessing that the string in question is the @"Arial Bold" since it that is the only string on that line, but from what I understand a string created like that doesn't require a -release message. Could these be false positives generated by the leaks tool, or is there something that I'm missing?

Thanks for any pointers!
