dealloc methods not being called?

I'm trying to do some cleanup work when my app terminates*.  I have 
the appropriate code to do said cleanup in one of my dealloc methods. 
I'm finding that when I quit the app (cmd-Q), NONE of my dealloc 
methods are being called (I have breakpoints set of every one of them, 
and not a single one is being called).

Now, I've implemented NSApplication's -applicationWillTerminate: 
delegate method, and thankfully it *is* being called, so I s'pose I 
can do what I need to do there, but...why aren't any of the dealloc 
methods being hit?


Thanks!

without properly closing this connection, the camera cannot be 
operated manually without first disconnecting it from the computer, so 
I want to be nice and clean things up.
