Does iPhone OS 3.0 have a real garbage collector?
garbage-collection, iphone
Solution
iPhone OS 3.0 does not have any garbage collection features and Apple has not indicated they will include this feature in future OS releases (they tend to be secretive about future features). You still need to manage memory manually through `alloc`, `release` and `autorelease` calls.
Problem
If not, are there any plans to add Garbage Collection to the iPhone? Related question: This question from January (pre OS 3.0) says the iPhone had no GC at the time. Thanks!
