Do I need to call 'CGPathRelease' manually in OC?

Question

Suppose that I get the current context in 'drawRect:rect' method and create a path. What will this path be after calling 'CGContextDrawPath' method? Will it be released safely or cause memory leak, or just remain the same? Do I need to call 'CGPathRelease' manually

CGContextRef context = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext();

CGMutablePathRef path = CGPathCreateMutable();
CGPathMoveToPoint(path, nil, 20, 50);
CGPathAddLineToPoint(path, nil, 20, 100);

CGContextAddPath(context, path);

//Do something else here 

CGContextDrawPath(context, kCGPathFillStroke);

Yes you have to call CGPathRelease manually. Remember ARC does not manage Core Foundation objects. Here is some reading material
