Deinit never called

Question

I\'m creating a ViewController object an pushing it to a navigation controller. When the object is being popped from the stack - it is not being release and Deinit is not be

Answer 1

I had similar problem. I added empty deinit method to my class and added breakpoint:

deinit {

}

As result it's never called.
As soon as I add some code to the body it started working as expected:

deinit {
    print("deinit called")
}

So be sure that your deinit method isn't empty.
PS. I am using Swift 2, Xcode 7.1
