sl@0: /** These are the functions used to register a library's memory cleanup
sl@0:  * functions.  Each library should define a single library register function
sl@0:  * to call this API.  In the i18n library, it is ucln_i18n_registerCleanup().
sl@0:  *
sl@0:  * None of the cleanup functions should use a mutex to clean up an API's
sl@0:  * allocated memory because a cleanup function is not meant to be thread safe,
sl@0:  * and plenty of data cannot be reference counted in order to make sure that
sl@0:  * no one else needs the allocated data.
sl@0:  *
sl@0:  * In order to make a cleanup function get called when u_cleanup is called,
sl@0:  * You should add your function to the library specific cleanup function.
sl@0:  * If the cleanup function is not in the common library, the code that
sl@0:  * allocates the memory should call the library specific cleanup function.
sl@0:  * For instance, in the i18n library, any memory allocated statically must
sl@0:  * call ucln_i18n_registerCleanup() from the ucln_in.h header.  These library
sl@0:  * cleanup functions are needed in order to prevent a circular dependency
sl@0:  * between the common library and any other library.
sl@0:  *
sl@0:  * The order of the cleanup is very important.  In general, an API that
sl@0:  * depends on a second API should be cleaned up before the second API.
sl@0:  * For instance, the default converter in ustring depends upon the converter
sl@0:  * API.  So the default converter should be closed before the converter API
sl@0:  * has its cache flushed.  This will prevent any memory leaks due to
sl@0:  * reference counting.
sl@0:  *
sl@0:  * Please see common/ucln_cmn.{h,c} and i18n/ucln_in.{h,c} for examples.
