All Objective-C objects are reference counted objects. Once the count reaches zero - the object is freed.
The modern Objective-C (or Swift) recommends (strongly, fiercely) to use Automatic-Reference-Counting (ARC) support. FPC support for Objective-C was started way before ARC became highly recommended and was part of the language. Right now Objective-C 2.0 syntax provides the language level support for ARC, while FPC doesn't have those (yet?). All Cocoa Widgetset code cannot doesn't rely on ARC and using reference and dereference manually.
