question related to Iphone autorelease usage
- by user524331
Could someone help me please understand how allocation and memory management is done and handled in following scenario. i am giving a Psuedo code example and question thats troubling me is inline below:
interface first
{ NSDecimalNumber *number1;
}
implementation
.....
-(void) dealloc {
[number1 release];
[super dealloc];
}
=================================
interface second
{ NSDecimalNumber *number2;
}
implementation second
.....
- (First*) check
{
First *firstObject = [[[First alloc] init] autorelease];
number1 = [[NSDecimalNumber alloc] initWithInteger:0];
**// do i need to autorelease number1 as well?**
return firstObject;
}
