Memory Leak issue

hi guys, I've written a little programme with a couple of UIImage animations and a random string grab from a plist. Been trying to put it on the iphone but it says there are issues... so i put it through a leak programme and it said there were memory leaks.

tried releasing more things but it crashes. Any help would be fantastic.
thanks

Code:

@implementation MainViewController
@synthesize quoteLabel;




- (id)initWithNibName:(NSString *)nibNameOrNil bundle:(NSBundle *)nibBundleOrNil {
	if (self = [super initWithNibName:nibNameOrNil bundle:nibBundleOrNil]) {
	}
	return self;
	[nibNameOrNil release];
}

- (void)viewDidLoad {
	

	UIImageView* fireView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:self.view.frame];
	

	fireView.animationImages = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:	
									
									[UIImage imageNamed:@"plainshroom.png"],
									[UIImage imageNamed:@"plainshroom.png"],
									[UIImage imageNamed:@"plainshroom.png"],
									[UIImage imageNamed:@"plainshroom.png"],
									[UIImage imageNamed:@"plainshroom.png"],
									[UIImage imageNamed:@"plainshroom.png"],
									[UIImage imageNamed:@"blinkshroom"],
									
									nil];
	
		fireireView.animationDuration = 14.00;
	// repeat the annimation forever
	fireView.animationRepeatCount = 0;
	// start animating
	[fireView startAnimating];
	// add the animation view to the main window 
	[self.view addSubview:campFireView];
	[fireView release]; 
	
		
}


-(IBAction) shockedShroom{
	
	UIImageView* shockedView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:self.view.frame];
	
	// load all the frames of our animation
	shockedView.animationImages = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:	
								   [UIImage imageNamed:@"star1.png"],
								   [UIImage imageNamed:@"star2.png"],
								   [UIImage imageNamed:@"star3.png"],
								   [UIImage imageNamed:@"star4.png"],

								   nil];
	
	
	
	shockedView.animationDuration = 0.30;
	
	shockedView.animationRepeatCount = 4;
	// start animating
	[shockedView startAnimating];
	// add the animation view to the main window 
	[self.view addSubview:shockedView];
	[shockedView release]; 
}

tried to release array1, and some strings.

will have a look at the NSAutoreleasePool, will that work for the iphone?? Do I need to do it for each method??

 

the array with the plist contents- array1 is retained but when I try and release it it crashes, and if it's not retained it doesn't work.

 

thanks dejo, will try it now.

 

just did it and it said

quoteLabel.text = arrayData1; ------ Potential leak of an object allocated on line 123.... this is the alloc of array1, the array with contents of file.... must be the retain problem. Not sure how I can release it. .. will try Autorelease pool? just for the one method???

 

lol, yeah, when i found i had memory problems i just tries releasing other stuff in case it helped. I'm a noob really so strugglilng a bit.

 

thanks guys, will study the rules at length. I've also got things working... I removed the retain and the release commands that were not needed.
