I notice some metal-cpp classes have static funtion like static URL* fileURLWithPath(const class String* pPath); static class ComputePassDescriptor* computePassDescriptor(); static class AccelerationStructurePassDescriptor* accelerationStructurePassDescriptor(); which return a new object. these classes also provide 'alloc' and 'init' function to create object by default. for object created by 'alloc' and 'init', I use something like NS::Shaderd_Ptr or call release directly to free memory. Because 'alloc' and 'init' not explicit call on these static function. I wonder how to correctly free object created by these static function? did they managed by autorelease pool?

Code is download from apple official metal4 sample [https://developer.apple.com/documentation/metal/drawing-a-triangle-with-metal-4?language=objc] enable metal gpu trace in macOS schema and trace a frame in Xcode. Xcode may show segment fault on App from some 'GTTrace' function when click trace button. When replay a .gputrace file, Xcode may crash , throw an internal error or a XPC error. The example code using old metal-renderer can trace without any problem and everything works fine. Test Environment: Xcode Version 26.2 (17C52) macOS 26.2 (25C56) M1 Pro 16GB A2442

*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '-[NSBundle allFrameworks]: unrecognized selector sent to instance NS::Bundle* Bundle = NS::Bundle::mainBundle(); Bundle->allFrameworks(); call to allFrameworks() and allBundles() will throw exception, but other functions work well.

The sample code just draw a triangle and sample texture. both sample code can draw a correct triangle and sample texture as expected. there are no error message from terminal. Sample code using constexpr Sampler can capture and replay well. Sample code using a argumentTable to bind a MTLSamplerState was crashed when using Metal capture and replay on Xcode. Here are sample codes. Sample Code Test Environment: M1 Pro MacOS 26.3 (25D125) Xcode Version 26.2 (17C52) Feedback ID: FB22031701
