I have an NSArray declared as an instance variable in a controller object that I have, in the object's - (id)init method I call another method that assigns that NSArray an array with the call [staffArray arrayWithObjects:<object1>, <object2>, etc.., nil]. I have one method that obtains objects from this array with no problem, however, I have another method that builds an NSPopUpButton with the contents of this array, and I get a SIGBUS if I don't have the array assigned inside the method that builds the NSPopUpButton. Anybody know why this is?

Are you retaining the array reference? I believe arrayWithObjects returns an NSArray object that's been sent an autorelease message. Therefore, try sending your array a RETAIN message after creating it.

That's my only guess.

You meant retain or ?

Yes I did. Whoops. Fixed now.

I assumed retain
