Multiple feeds with MWFeedParser, help with code - iphone

Question

I currently have this code but it leaks because I don't know how to release feed parser object this many times, so I need help with memory management or some other way to feed multiple feeds with it.
Code:
for (NSString *imePredmeta in [Data variables].mojiPredmeti) {
NSString *link = [[Data variables].rss objectForKey: imePredmeta];
NSURL *feedURL = [NSURL URLWithString: link];
feedParser = [[MWFeedParser alloc] initWithFeedURL:feedURL];
feedParser.delegate = self;
feedParser.feedParseType = ParseTypeFull; // Parse feed info and all items
feedParser.connectionType = ConnectionTypeAsynchronously;
[feedParser parse];
}
Dealloc:
- (void)dealloc {
[formatter release];
[parsedItems release];
[itemsToDisplay release];
[feedParser release];
[super dealloc];
}
And initWithFeedUrl from MWFeedParser code is:
- (id)initWithFeedURL:(NSURL *)feedURL {
if ((self = [self init])) {
// Check if an string was passed as old init asked for NSString not NSURL
if ([feedURL isKindOfClass:[NSString class]]) {
feedURL = [NSURL URLWithString:(NSString *)feedURL];
}
// Remember url
self.url = feedURL;
}
return self;
}

The best way would be to add them to an array, and then in dealloc release that array.
// declare an iVar in your header file
NSMutableArray *feeds;
// instantiate the array, but release it first as you may call your method more
// than once
if (feeds) {
[feeds release];
}
feeds = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
for (NSString *imePredmeta in [Data variables].mojiPredmeti) {
...
// after calling parse on the feed, add it to the array and then release it.
// Objects added to an array are retained by the array so this is safe
[feedParser parse];
[feeds addObject:feedParser]; // <-- Add parser to array
[feedParser release]; // <-- Release parser
}
// then in your dealloc simply release the array, which will in-turn release all
// the parser objects it contains
- (void)dealloc {
[formatter release];
[parsedItems release];
[itemsToDisplay release];
[feeds release]; // <-- Release feeds array
// I've removed the call to release feedParser as it's already been released
[super dealloc];
}
