+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The QObjectCleanupHandler class watches the lifetime of multiple QObjects.
+.PP
+A QObjectCleanupHandler is useful whenever you need to know when a number of QObjects that are owned by someone else have been deleted. This is important, for example, when referencing memory in an application that has been allocated in a shared library.
+.PP
+Example:
+.PP
+.nf
+.br
+ class FactoryComponent : public FactoryInterface, public QLibraryInterface
+.br
+ {
+.br
+ public:
+.br
+ ...
+.br
+.br
+ QObject *createObject();
+.br
+.br
+ bool init();
+.br
+ void cleanup();
+.br
+ bool canUnload() const;
+.br
+.br
+ private:
+.br
+ QObjectCleanupHandler objects;
+.br
+ };
+.br
+.br
+ // allocate a new object, and add it to the cleanup handler
+.br
+ QObject *FactoryComponent::createObject()
+.br
+ {
+.br
+ return objects.add( new QObject() );
+.br
+ }
+.br
+.br
+ // QLibraryInterface implementation
+.br
+ bool FactoryComponent::init()
+.br
+ {
+.br
+ return TRUE;
+.br
+ }
+.br
+.br
+ void FactoryComponent::cleanup()
+.br
+ {
+.br
+ }
+.br
+.br
+ // it is only safe to unload the library when all QObject's have been destroyed
+.br
+ bool FactoryComponent::canUnload() const
+.br
+ {
+.br
+ return objects.isEmpty();
+.br
+ }
+.br
