Where are you allocating the memory? In the kernel? If its inside user space (which it would be if you just malloc() it in the framework, then it will be disposed of upon any termination (abnormal or otherwise). I have build an framework for accessing the usb bulk storage device using iokit.framework. Multiple applications can access the device using this framework. For each application accessing the device, the framework allocates some memory. Now, I need to free this memory when ever the application: a. Closes decently b. Abnornal termination So is there any way that I can notify the framework that the application has been closed ? Is giving notification to the framework through signals the right way ? If yes, then how ? _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
