crashing iPhone program when used to read a dictionary file from plist file

I am learning to program for the iPhone using the Beginning iPhone 4 programming. Today, I decided to create a program of my own which will read in a dictionary of numbers and their French versions. The app is supposed to show the numbers in a table view and when tapped should show the French version in an alertview. I have not implemented the displaying of the french translation yet since I am having trouble in getting the table view to work. It shows the numbers and then when I try to scroll up or down, it crashes. I am not sure what is wrong. Here is the plist file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-    1.0.dtd">

I have loaded the plist file into the resources folder of the project. I have a NIB file where I create the tableview. Then in the code below, I read the contents of the plist file:

   - (void)viewDidLoad {
NSBundle *bundle = [NSBundle mainBundle];
NSString *plistPath = [bundle pathForResource:@"frenchNumbers" ofType:@"plist"];
NSDictionary *dictionary = [[NSDictionary alloc]initWithContentsOfFile:plistPath];
self.numberDictionary = 开发者_如何学编程dictionary;
[dictionary release];

NSArray *keysInDictionary = [self.numberDictionary allKeys];
self.numerals = keysInDictionary;
[keysInDictionary release];
    [super viewDidLoad];

Here is the code for TableView Data Source methods:

-(NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *) tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger) section{
return [self.numerals count];
}

-(UITableViewCell *) tableView:(UITableView *) tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
static NSString *FrenchNumbersIdentifier = @"FrenchNumbersIdentifier";

UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:FrenchNumbersIdentifier];

if (cell == nil) {
    cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc]initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault
                                  reuseIdentifier:FrenchNumbersIdentifier]autorelease];
}

NSUInteger row = [indexPath row];
cell.textLabel.text = [numerals objectAtIndex:row];
NSLog(@"Value to be printed: %@",[numerals objectAtIndex:row]);
return cell;

}

 -(void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
NSUInteger row = [indexPath row];
NSString *rowValue = [numerals objectAtIndex:row];

NSString *message = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@"You selected: %@",rowValue];

UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc]initWithTitle:@"Row Selected"
                                                message:message delegate:nil
                                     cancelButtonTitle:@"OK"
                                     otherButtonTitles:nil];
[alert show];

[message release];
[alert release];
[tableView deselectRowAtIndexPath:indexPath animated:YES];
}

If I replace my plist file with a simple hard coded array and load that into the tableview, the code works just fine and I am able to select the row and display the alertview. My guess is that something is wrong with my dictionary or my dictionary load methods. I am not able to figure out what. Can you please help?!

NSArray *keysInDictionary = [self.numberDictionary allKeys];
self.numerals = keysInDictionary;
[keysInDictionary release];  // <- remove this line

Do not release keysInDictionary. You have created it with a convenience method that returns an autoreleased object. And as you (should) know it is only allowed to release objects that you own (ie objects you send a alloc, retain, new or copy message)

Maybe you should read the Memory Management Programming Guide again. It's crucial to understand memory management.
