Possible Retain cycle

[kwongius]

We are using TURecipientsDisplayController and we believe there may be a retain cycle. The property contentsController is strong and when the view controller creates and holds a TURecipientsDisplayController, it never gets deallocated. I was unable to find a reason for the property to be strong, but I may have missed something.

TURecipientsDisplayController.h (Line 58)

I have experienced the same issue.
I had set up the recipient library as in the example, and a reference cycle with my View Controller was indeed created.

As a workaround, I broke the reference cycle in my controller by hand (because it is not pushing or presenting anything):

- (void)viewDidDisappear {
...
   self.recipientDisplayController.contentsController = nil;
}

contentsController should indeed be a weak reference.
