Autoreleased objects are only autoreleased when the pool is drained.
It is more than likely that the XMLDocument initWithContentsOfURL
makes a lot of temporary objects which end up on the autorelease
pool but they won't actually be released until the end of your loop.
Put another pool alloc at the start of your loop before the NSURL
alloc and then drain it after you release the xmlDocument - that
will ensure all temporaries created during the parse are destroyed.
Or switch to garbage collection. By far the better alternative unless
you must support Tiger or iPhone.

The piece of code I want to discuss is followed:
#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
int main (int argc, const char * argv[]) {
NSAutoreleasePool * pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];
for(int i=0;i<5000;i++)
{
NSURL *inAbsoluteURL = [[[NSURL alloc]
initFileURLWithPath:@"the
path to one xml file"] autorelease];
NSError *error = NULL;
NSXMLDocument *xmlDocument = [[NSXMLDocument alloc]
initWithContentsOfURL:(NSURL*)inAbsoluteURL
options:0
error:&error];
//hande my Xpath, and do check work. will not cosume the
memory.
[xmlDocument release];
}
[pool drain];
return 0;
}
I used the Instruments to detect the objects created but still live
until
the application quit, I also use top command to check the memory
usage.
I found a lot of node, element, and other children object still
live after
the xmlDocument do release.
I found that the memory usage of this application is increasing
rapidly.
Can any one give me a guilde to force the system to dealloc the
memory
during the for loop. I need to batch handle a lot of xml files. But
after
the application runs for a while,
the system will crash because of no memory.
