I’m not sure it’d be safe under ARC (that is, doing something that could cause ‘self’ to be deallocated), because ARC might have epilogue code at the end of the scope, and that *might* refer to self. However, it’s probably safe for a different reason. ‘performSelector’ should retain its receiver, and presumably won’t release it until after the performed method returns, so your ‘[self release]’ presumably won’t actually result in deallocation. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
