Currently I have the code below to add my view to a navigation controller. If I used autorelease on the first line and removed release from the 3rd line am I in any danger of my view getting deallocated before it is retained by the pushViewController method????

    WeaponStoreView *weaponStoreView = [[WeaponStoreView alloc] initWithNibName:@"WeaponStoreView" bundle:nil];

    // ...
    // Pass the selected object to the new view controller.
    [self.navigationController pushViewController:weaponStoreView animated:YES];
    [weaponStoreView release];

    No, the weaponStoreView should be retained by pushViewController: as soon as it receives it, there are some complication issue when dealing with thread where you have to be careful, but in this situation no. Technically you are still better of doing it the way you have it now as it mean the weaponStoreView can be released as soon as it is no longer needed instead until your release pool is flushed but in this case you navigationController is going to be hanging onto your weaponStoreView long after the current event loop has finished.
