how to fail???

Alright so I've got a lot of shit that should be done at the end of this program (closing any open files, ending SDL and/or Winsocks, freeing mallocated memory, etc).

But I can't always be sure when/where this program will terminate.

How do I make my codez so that I know it will always perform the clean-up code etc whenever I want the program to end?

<?php
// Failure script v.1.0
// Copyright (c) 1992-2005 xNeaRdeAtHx
// U MUST LEAVE THIS LINE IN YOUR CODE
print("<!-- Failure script v.1.0 - BY http://cool-free-php-scripts.tk/ -->");
die("FAIL!!!");
// End of Failure script v.1.0?>

Maybe you can use atexit? You need to give some more information about what you're trying to do.

I'm trying atexit right now but I am wondering about the best way to perform clean-up shit regardless of where my program ends etc.

I think I've got it

Keep a stack of cleanup functions for every simple task, and depending on the location in your program, push or pop the stack of functions. In the atexit function, just pop each value from the stack and call the function pointer.

I created this technique.

I'd just like to reiterate that I created this EXPERT PROGRAMMING technique.
