I could have sworn in either the apple docs (or one of the cocoa books, maybe this board). I maybe thinking of the general rule that you don't own the object until you retain it and its only valid or the within the method that its recieved. My bad.

As Cocoa documentation states all items returned from a message are autoreleased unless otherwise stated in the documentation for the API call.

The documentation emphatically does not state that.

The basic rules are given here:
<http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/MemoryMgmt/Articles/mmRules.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/20000994-BAJHFBGH >


The rest of the document gives further details.
