I recently noticed that if I open any of our documents and then

Even quitting our app doesn't help the situation.
FYI:
This is on 10.4.1. I have no idea if it happened previously. I
guess not since I am sure I would have noticed it by now.
We are overriding -(BOOL) [NSDocument readFromFile:(NSString *)
fileName ofType:(NSString *)aType];
but in the case in point, we just end up calling [super
readFromFile:fileName ofType:aType];
Our - (BOOL)loadDataRepresentation:(NSData *)data ofType:
(NSString *)aType
ends up using a KeyedUnarchiver on the Data.
I have used fs_usage to see if all the opens are matched with a
close and they do seem to be.
Has anyone got any ideas as to why this could happen.
As a bit of further info, lsof does not list the file as being
open. Am going to dig out a 10.3.x system and see if it still goes
wrong...
No, on 10.3.5 everything seems OK.
More info. It seems as though the problem rectifies itself after an
unknown of time. i.e A colleague was able to empty the Trash this
morning, even though he was unable to yesterday afternoon.
Although this looks like it is not obviously our fault, I find it
weird that I have been unable to reproduce this behaviour with any
other apps.

I've been having issues with untrashable files in 10.4.1, as well. In
particular, I've been having a hard time deleting disk images made in
iDVD after playing them in DVD Player. I have to - at the very least
- log out before I can trash them.
(By the way - this is my first reply to this list - hope I did it
right :)
