Hi, I'm just trying to work out why the following code is leaking memory and I have a funny feeling that i'm not releasing the array memory correctly. This is a C function in a wider objective-c app and I'm not native to C... i've tried just using free() on the array, but have a feeling this isn't the whole story...

Could someone have a look and see what I'm missing here. Thanks!

CFIndex theNumberOfSettings = 3;
CTParagraphStyleSetting theSettings[3] =
{
    {kCTParagraphStyleSpecifierAlignment, sizeof(CTTextAlignment), &alignment},
    {kCTParagraphStyleSpecifierLineSpacing, sizeof(lineSpacing), &lineSpacing},
    {kCTParagraphStyleSpecifierHeadIndent, sizeof(headIndent), &headIndent}
};

CTParagraphStyleRef theParagraphRef = CTParagraphStyleCreate(theSettings, theNumberOfSettings);

CFAttributedStringSetAttribute(attrString, CFRangeMake(0, CFAttributedStringGetLength(attrString)-1), kCTParagraphStyleAttributeName, theParagraphRef);

CFRelease(theParagraphRef);
free(theSettings);
