Abstract

A software program (12) is configured to initiate, process, and terminate user sessions (22, 26). A resource deallocation module (50) is linked to the software program (12) to deallocate allocated external resources of each object of a user session responsive to an impending termination of said user session. An automatic memory management module (40) is invoked by the software program with respect to said user session subsequent to the deallocation performed by the resource deallocation module (50) and prior to the termination of said user session.
