我假设NSArrayController的addObject和removeObject与NSMutableArray中的类似物的工作方式类似。
但是，看起来addObject会将其目标对象的refcount增加3，而NSArrayController:removeObject只会将目标的refcount减少1，留下2的差异，这会导致代码中的内存泄漏。 / p>
NSArrayController *ac = [[NSArrayController alloc] init];
NSMutableArray *ma = [[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithCapacity:3];
Custom *obj = [[Custom alloc] init];
NSLog(@"Initial: %lu", [obj retainCount]);
[ma addObject:obj];
NSLog(@"After NSMutableArray:addObject: %lu", [obj retainCount]);
[ma removeObject:obj];
NSLog(@"After NSMutableArray:removeObject: %lu", [obj retainCount]);
[ac addObject:obj];
NSLog(@"After NSArrayController:addObject: %lu", [obj retainCount]);
[ac removeObject:obj];
NSLog(@"After NSArrayController:removeObject: %lu", [obj retainCount]);
[obj release];
NSLog(@"End: %lu", [obj retainCount]);
我期待看到的内容：

我只是错误地使用NSArrayController吗？
以下是仪器的结果。 Instruments说这个对象最终会出现在一个autoreleasepool中，最终会为ArrayController耗尽。根据我的理解，autoreleasepools在runloop的末尾被排出。但是我的dealloc方法永远不会在我的演示代码中调用，即使我手动添加NSAutoreleasePool并将其耗尽。
[ma addObject:obj];
NSLog(@"After NSMutableArray:addObject: %lu", [obj retainCount]);
[ma removeObject:obj];
NSLog(@"After NSMutableArray:removeObject: %lu", [obj retainCount]);
