Possible Duplicate:
How is release handled for @synthesized retain properties?

I saw someone mention somewhere (I don’t remember who or where) that properties that are synthesized are automatically set to nil in dealloc and hence released. However Instruments thinks different by just marking everything as memory leaks.
Which one is correct? Maybe I missed a feature that makes this happen? (this is definitely not arc as I saw it about the time iOS 4.1 was out)

    Take a look at this question: How is release handled for @synthesized retain properties?

    So pretty much you have to release it yourself. It does not do it automatically for you.
