I’m checking for leaks in Instruments, and I’ve set to check every second, but no leaks are appearing.
I’m sure there must be some in my app, is there anything which could stop these from appearing? Is there a good way I can create a leak so that I can test if leaks do show up in Instruments?
Thanks!
You’re only going to find leaks with a tool if an object is allocated but no longer referenced. Another type of “leak” is to hold a reference to something that you didn’t intend to. This typically happens with a collection like a hash table or a dictionary where key/value pairs get left in the collection that the programmer has forgotten about.
