I'm sorry to ask such a simple question, but it's a specific question I've not been able to find an answer for.
I'm not a native objective-c programmer, so I apologise if I use any C# terms!
If I define an object in test.h
@interface test : something {
NSString *_testString;
}
Then initialise it in test.m
-(id)init {
_testString = [[NSString alloc] initWithString:@"hello"];
}
Then I understand that I would release it in dealloc, as every init should have a release
-(void)dealloc {
[_testString release];
}
However, what I need clarification on is what happens if in init, I use one of the shortcut methods for object creation, do I still release it in dealloc? Doesn't this break the "one release for one init" rule? e.g.
-(id)init {
_testString = [NSString stringWithString:@"hello"];
}
Thanks for your helps, and if this has been answered somewhere else, I apologise!!
Steven
