Dealloc of UITableView not called

I have created some UITableViews in storyboard and written custom classes for each of them. I have dragged and dropped the tableview objects into my main view controller to access them. In the UITableView custom classes, I allocate some class level objects in "numberOfSectionsInTableView" delegate method. I want to release all the class level objects allocated in the numberOfSectionsInTableView method in the dealloc method. But the dealloc is not getting called even if I move to some other view controller. Does anyone have any idea why this is not called, or where else I can release these objects. (ARC is turned off)

Here are some things you could do:

  1. turn ARC on?
  2. Are you sure its not accessed? make an NSLog(@"ACCESSED"); in your dealloc method
  3. use viewDidUnload method to release things
  4. directly release them in their methods if they are not needed anymore

Try to find something about UIViewController life cycle. Try to release your objects in viewDidUnload method and put breakpoints there. This pic should be useful for you: enter image description here
