I would hazard a guess that Cem is referring to the "Enable Objective-C Garbage Collection" compiler option in the Xcode build settings inspector. In which case, I'll just state for the record that it doesn't currently do anything useful.

Aaah, so the XCode team is not only very busy adding more bloat, more bugs, more crashes and more clutter, they *ALSO* add features wich do nothing... Oh my, how I love this IDE... :>

Adding a garbage collector is a good thing, and suppress all problem of memory leaks or freeing twice the same memory block. Even if it not very useful at this time, it's a work which may be useful in the futur : imagine a version of Mac OS X with all libraries compiled with the Objective-C GC (and release replace by a nop). It's not the case actually, but just wait, I'm sure many developers will be happy when such a system will be released.
