  • Thread-topic: How do I view the retain count in Xcode's debug window?

So something like this: override retain, release, and autorelease so
that every time any of them get called, the object's location in memory,
its retain count, and its description get written to a log file.  Then
set up the appropriate environment variables so that I kill the program
the moment overreleasing happens.  I can then grep for the object in the
log file via its location in memory, and then try to work out every
place that it is being retained/released to figure out what is
happening.

Argh, all this makes me wish for Omnicient Debugging

Thanks,
