will the retained/strong class member variables got automatically clean'd up on unloading a view controller?

Question

I have the following property

.h

@property (nonatomic, strong) NSMutableDictionary *cache;

.m

@synthesize cache = _cach         


        

Answer 1

You can add:

-(void)dealloc { 
    // If you are using ARC remove the line below
    [super dealloc]
} 

And put a breakpoint and it will tell you when it is being released. The dealloc method will be called with ARC as well, just be sure that you don't call [super dealloc] in ARC.
