Yikes. Usually the inline bits are used for the *low order* bits of the retain
count. That is, the full retain count is something like (internal_refs +
(external_refs << internal_width). But in this case NSParagraphStyle does only
seem to be using the internal bits:
#import <Cocoa/Cocoa.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
NSParagraphStyle *pg = [NSParagraphStyle defaultParagraphStyle];
for (;;) {
for (NSUInteger i = 0; i < 100000; i++)
[pg retain];
NSLog(@"%ld", [pg retainCount]);
}
return 0;
}
