i've got some class-specific stuff setup in +initalize, and i was wondering if there's something like -dealloc for the class-object, or what does happend when your class gets unloaded from the runtime?

Classes doesn't get unloaded, a tad irritating if you design an app which uses plugins in the form of classes, as there is no way (AFAIK) to "flush" the loaded plugins.

At program exit, all memory is just released to the system.

What you can do is either a) take a notification on applicationWillShutdown or similar or b) use (Objective-)C++ and have an object as static data, which will get the destructor invoked when the program exists.
