Hello all I was viewing the bill dudney episode on memory management and ran into an issue during my build. It appears that my Movie object is still playing after being released?

Here is the code:



#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
#import "Movie.h" 

int main (int argc, const char * argv[]) {
    NSAutoreleasePool * pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];

    Movie *movie = [[Movie alloc] initWithTitle:@"Iron Man" 
                                      andRating:5
                                        andYear:2009];

    //movie.title = @"iron man";
    //movie.rating = 5;

    //[movie play];
    //NSLog(@"Our movie is %@", movie);

    NSLog(@"The retain count is: %d", [movie retainCount]);

    [movie release];

    [movie play]; //sending a message to a object already released.

    [pool drain];
    return 0;
}

The app continues to run with no issues as if the object still has a retain count? whereas in the video Dudney gets a error in gdb.

Thanks for any help.
