Detailed Description

A class for managing autorelease pools.

Autorelease pools provide a way to defer sending release messages to objects. When an autorelease pool is drained, it sends a release message to all objects that have been added to it. This is particularly useful in loops where many temporary objects are created.

Method Documentation

◆ addObject:()

- (void) addObject: (id object

Adds an object to the autorelease pool.

Parameters
objectThe object to be added to the pool. This object will be sent a release message when the pool is deallocated.

◆ currentPool()

+ (id) currentPool

The current autorelease pool.

This variable holds the current autorelease pool that is being used. It is automatically set when an autorelease pool is created.
