Hi, Yes my Document class releases the array in its dealloc method and all Node objects in the array are properly dealloc'ed when deallocing the document.
However, I think the problem is unrelated to the retaining of the array member of the document class but rather to the retaining of elements added to the array via NSTreeControllers add:sender and remove:sender class. Adding a node object through this method creates a node object in the document array member with a retain count of 2. The remove:sender method correctly removes the object from the document's array but only decrements the node object's retain count to 1 - meaning that the objects are never dealloc. As I see it, this is a memory leak in NSTreeController as all "my" external references to the Node objects are lost.
