I don't see what's so cool about this G-Pod. Pretty standard stuff.

I think I like this one even better - it's like a modern version of NeXT! http://skins4.wincustomize.com/MikeB...thos-wb-ss.jpg

Yes Windows can be more easily themed...but I've tried Windowblinds and it sucks. Maybe it's Stardock's fault or maybe it's Microsoft's. All I know is the skins look cheap, for exa…

Hey everyone. I'm having rather odd issues with the NSAutoRelease pool. My program is crashing when the NSAutoRelease pool releases an NSString that I have neither retained nor r…

My guess is that NSString's -substringWithRange: returns an autoreleased NSString, so if you autorelease that, it's on the autorelease pool twice, and thus gets sent -release twice…

Don't autorelease the object. Whenever you get an object without using an alloc] init... statmeent, it's assuemd the the object has already been autoreleased. Matt Fahrenbacher

New information: Elsewhere in this laExpression class, I have been using the NSNotification center to pass messages to whomever needs to know when the object has changed. On a wh…

Maybe you should take a look at the stuff in NSDebug.h and search Apple's developer site for MallocDebug. These are both helpful in tracking down these types of issues.

Some closure here... apparently, ObjectAlloc isn't a program you can rely on to give you details about why your program crashed. The thing that I finally had to do is print out a…
