memory management - iPhone: custom UITableViewCell with Interface Builder -> how to release cell objects? -

the official documentation tells me i've these 3 things in order manage memory "nib objects" correctly.

@property (nonatomic, retain) iboutlet uiuserinterfaceelementclass *anoutlet; 

"you should either synthesize corresponding accessor methods, or implement them according declaration, , (in iphone os) release corresponding variable in dealloc."

- (void)viewdidunload {     self.anoutlet = nil;     [super viewdidunload]; } 

that makes sense normal view. however, how gonna uitableview custom uitableviewcells loaded through .nib-file?

there iboutlets in mycustomcell.h (inherited uitableviewcell), not place load nib , apply cell instances, because happens in mytableview.m

so still release iboutlets in dealloc of mycustomcell.m or have in mytableview.m?

also mycustomcell.m doesn't have - (void)viewdidunload {} can set iboutlets nil, while mytableview.m does.

are iboutlets properties of cell? if release them in mycustomcell's dealloc method.

make sure following guidelines tableviews , calling dequeuereusablecellwithidentifier: in tableview:cellforrowatindex. tableview release custom cells when no longer needs them. assuming not have other references cells (you shouldn't) dealloc called cell dequeued tableview.
