Xcode Version 4.0 Build 4A304a

The first time the setTardiesAry runs, it is fine, the second time, the program fails on the @synthesize tardiesAry line with error: Thread 1: Program received signal "EXC_BAD_ACCESS".

I tried overriding the method setTardiesAry, failed in that method instead of the @synthesize line instead.

Please help, I have no idea how to continue.

It was had an autorelease in getTardies.

modify

here with ur dealloc

- (void)dealloc {

    [self.tardiesAry release];

}
