I think dictionaryWithCapacity should both alloc and init it, right?

Yes, and it autoreleases it too. :-o That means it'll conveniently be released later on, which is exactly what you're running into. If you want to keep a reference to the dictionary, you should call alloc and init yourself.


Sounds like you need to read over the memory management rules again :) Remember the cardinal rule: The only methods that return references you own and have to release are "alloc", "copy", "mutableCopy", "new", and of course "retain".
