Object is not released after dealloc

Heapshots show that objects are not released, and at the same time logs show that dealloc was called. i do release all properties and remove all superviews in dealloc. So why memory is still not released?

If dealloc was called, but the memory backing the object was not released, there are two possibilities:

  1. You did not call [super dealloc] at the end of your -dealloc (only applies to non-ARC code)
  2. You have Zombies enabled. This can be done either via a checkbox in Instruments (in the configuration for the ObjectAlloc instrument), or via the Diagnostics tab in the Scheme editor.

Did you (assuming you're not using ARC) call [super dealloc] at the end of your dealloc method?
