Question

I am using RKJSONParserKit to read json content and store in a NSDictionary

parser=[[[RKJSONParserJSONKit alloc] init]autorelease];
NSDictionary *dataDict=[parser objectFromString:response.bodyAsString error:&error];

dataDict seems to be leaking, i even tried

NSDictionary *dataDict=[NSDictionary dictionaryWithDictionary:[parser objectFromString:response.bodyAsString error:&error]];

As far as my understanding, i dont have to release dataDict since am not using alloc/init on it.

The code works as expected, but when tested with “Profiling” – it shows leaks.

ANy advice?

Thanks

I think it is not the dictionary “leaking” but the method objectFromString:error:. Internally I think JSONKit creates some static variables that will appear as “leaks”, because they are never released. Unless you have a large memory leak I would say it is normal.
