Please, help with memory leak ImageIO

[lomito]

Hello guys!

Almost done with my app. I made an app with Utility Template. When I press the info button I just try to load the support website and in that precise moment i get a couple of leaks. The code involved has been track down to this in the viewdidload method:

NSURL *aboutURL;
NSString *aboutURLString;
aboutURLString=[[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@"http://..."];
aboutURL=[[NSURL alloc] initWithString:aboutURLString];
[aboutView loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:aboutURL]];
[aboutURL release];
[aboutURLString release];

If I remove this piece of code my app is leak free but dont know whats wrong. Any help would be much appreciate.

in your code there aren't leaks.
Seem to be a leak related to UIWebView, you can't do much that use the latest iOS version and hope that doesn't leak

Thanks for your reply.
So, you mean to install a different version of xcode and then create from there the IBOutlets and connections related to the UIWebView? What happens if a submit the app like this, after all, is not my code causing the leak and the app seems not to crash.

Thanks again!

I assume you are seeing leaks in Instruments. If you are not seeing huge increases in memory used as you use the app (when checking allocations in Instruments) then your app should be able to run for a long time without issue so would pass the app store checks. There are lots of other things you need to check as well especially low memory conditions. What happens to your app when the device is full of running apps or otherwise in a low memory state? Are you testing this?
