Re: [swift-users] Memory Leak Indicated when Derived from NSObject

[Ray Fix via swift-users]

Thanks for the update Chris.  Hmm...

So, I get memory runtime issues if I run this on an actual device iPad Air 2 
(iOS 10.2) with Version 8.2 (8C38).  Can’t get it to happen on the simulator. 
Can’t get it to happen if I make a macOS command line tool and inspect it with 
the leaks command.

(I reported this as radar 29715025 but if anyone has any insights please share! 
 )

Thank you,
Ray Fix

import UIKit


class Thing {}

class Test: NSObject
{
    static let shared = Test()
    var dictionary: [String: Thing] = [:]

    func method() {
        dictionary = ["value": Thing()]
    }
}

class ViewController: UIViewController {
    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        Test.shared.method()
        print("Leaky leaky... click on the memory visualizer to see issues.")
    }
}


When I click the memory visualizer it shows:

Memory Issues – (3 leaked types) Group
runtime: Memory Issues – (3 leaked types): 1 instance of 
_NativeDictionaryStorageImpl<String, Thing> leaked
