Debug Release.
A but more information on this. I saw this problem quite a while ago but then it stopped happening. I didn’t see it again for quite a while then at the time I started this thread it happened again…..
After tracking a down a bug in my code it went away…… The bug was to do with looking at objects that had been restored with NSKeyedArchiver, which was causing backlinks to not be self-referential Basically in a initWithCoder method on one of my objects in the archive, I had something like this:
myDictionary = [theCoder decodeObjectForKey:@“pSomeProp"];
self.pSomeProp = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc] initWithDictionary:myDictionary copyItems:YES];
I changed it to:
self.pSomeProp = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc] initWithDictionary:myDictionary copyItems:NO];
And it fixed by backlink problem and *ALSO* the problem with the debugger went away…….
Not sure what this means but it seems like a clue to me?
All the Best
Dave
