29  * ondestroy handling.
30  *
31  * Any class ``X'' of objects that wants to send out notifications
32  * on its destruction should declare a field of type isc_ondestroy_t
33  * (call it 'ondest').
34  *
35  * \code
36  * 	typedef struct {
37  * 		...
38  * 		isc_ondestroy_t	ondest;
39  * 		...
40  * 	} X;
41  * \endcode
42  *
43  * When an object ``A'' of type X is created
44  * it must initialize the field ondest with a call to
45  *
46  * \code
47  * 	isc_ondestroy_init(&A->ondest).
48  * \endcode
49  *
50  * X should also provide a registration function for third-party
51  * objects to call to register their interest in being told about
52  * the destruction of a particular instance of X.
53  *
54  * \code
55  *	isc_result_t
56  * 	X_ondestroy(X *instance, isc_task_t *task,
57  * 		     isc_event_t **eventp) {
58  * 		return(isc_ondestroy_register(&instance->ondest, task,eventp));
59  * 	}
60  * \endcode
61  *
62  *	Note: locking of the ondestory structure embedded inside of X, is
63  * 	X's responsibility.
64  *
65  * When an instance of X is destroyed, a call to  isc_ondestroy_notify()
66  * sends the notifications:
67  *
68  * \code
69  *	X *instance;
70  *	isc_ondestroy_t ondest = instance->ondest;
71  *
72  *	... completely cleanup 'instance' here...
73  *
74  * 	isc_ondestroy_notify(&ondest, instance);
75  * \endcode
76  *
77  *
78  * see lib/dns/zone.c for an ifdef'd-out example.
