[Pyobjc-dev] addToolTipRect has memory problem

[<bo...@pa...>]

adding this line into TableModel2 produces weird tool tips, and
eventually a sigbus error:

       def tableView_objectValueForTableColumn_row_(
           self, aTableView, aTableColumn, rowIndex):
+         tag =  
aTableView.addToolTipRect_owner_userData_(aTableView.rectOfRow_(rowIndex 
), "tool tip", 1234)

           print "tableView:objectValueForTableColumn:row: called"
           return "{%s, %d}"%(aTableColumn.identifier(), rowIndex)

changing it to:

+         tag =  
aTableView.addToolTipRect_owner_userData_(aTableView.rectOfRow_(rowIndex 
), self, 1234)

works (and produces a nice <PyModel > message), but add a description()  
method works even better:

     def description(self):
         return NSString.stringWithString_("tool tip")

arent literal strings in a constant pool? or do they have to be
retained? any ideas why the first solution fails?

thanks, bob
