Um. You don't?
Since all memory is reclaimed when the application quits,
deallocating a singleton to free memory is not necessary.
I can't be certain that the cleanup function won't do other things in
the future, such as removing files (locks).
If, for some other reason, you need to act when the application
quits, you can register for the
NSApplicationWillTerminateNotification notification.

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
I guess that would be the way to go. Although I'd have to either
expose a method that wraps around the C function, or call the C
function directly. Neither are really optimal, but the latter is a lot
better than nothing.
Thanks.
