Do I need to release a gesture recognizer?

Question

If I add a gesture recognizer to a table cell called cell, e.g.:

UILongPressGestureRecognizer *_longPressRecognizer = [[UILongPressGestureRecognizer         


        

Answer 1

The gesture recognizers are added to an internal NSMutableArray of the view. This array will be released once the view is deallocated. Thus -removeGestureRecognizer: doesn't need to be called manually.
