The eCAP stop() method is perhapse better, although that is documented as only being stop until a further start() is called so not a full shutdown. The retire() method seems to be another option although I dont quite understand its documentation myself. There is also the two configuration methods. It may make sense to reallocate or release unnecessary memory when finishing a reconfiguration. NP: I cant find any explicit eCAP closure code in Squid. Perhapse the object destructor is the best place for shutdown cleanup. Amos
