Hi,

Would the following NSApplication methods, placed into your application delegate's code, help at all?

- (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(NSNotification *)aNotification;
- (void)applicationWillTerminate:(NSNotification *)aNotification;

Of the latter, the docs say that one should "Put any necessary cleanup code in this method."

Cheers,
        Andrew

Hi,
I have a bit of an odd problem, which may be the result of a bad design decision. My program wraps around a C library, which internally uses a global variable (structure) to manage things, and has functions to access the data. The library requires me to call a function which allocates memory to that global variable, and afterwards call a function which deallocates that memory. My singleton class calls the function to initialise in the init method, but I don't know how to deallocate the memory. Since singleton objects exist until the end of program execution, I assume dealloc wouldn't work with garbage collection. Calling dealloc on a singleton object doesn't even make sense. How would I handle this?
