Has anyone a suggestion how to track this one down?
The easiest way would be to replace NSObject's -init and -dealloc methods. The
replacement of -init would then create a counter object (if it doesn't exist
yet) when ever it is called, and increment it by one, then return the original
-init. The new -dealloc would just decrement the object counter by one, then
call the original -dealloc. To check, you would have to first swizzle the
original -init and -dealloc with the new ones, run your test, dump the counter
when its finished, then switch both methods back to the original.
Yes, it's a hackish way, but it works.
Hi Chris,
I tried this one already. I wrote a MyObject and posed it as NSObject.
However NSArray for instance does not call [NSObject alloc]. (??)
Correct me if I'm wrong.
Thanks
Marc
