Question

in my app, I have an IBAction method to change view to a another view :

-(IBAction)beginGame:(id)sender {
    NSLog(@"beginGame clicked");
    GameView * thisGameView = [[[GameView alloc] init];
    MainAppDelegate * delegate = (MainAppDelegate *) [[ UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];

    delegate.window.rootViewController = thisGameView;
}

How should I deal with rootViewController property and thisGameView memory management?
release thisGameView now?

Please fill me some code in this ‘beginGame’ method. Thanks.

Yes, you should release thisGameView after assigning it to delegate.window.rootViewController. The assignment will retain it.
