<h2><a class='anchor' name='description'>Description</a></h2>
<p>Some UGens set a 'done' flag when they are finished playing. FreeSelfWhenDone will free the enclosing synth when this flag is set to true.
<p>See <a href="./../Classes/Done.html">Done</a> for a complete list of these UGens.
<p>Note that many of these UGens have doneActions, which are another way of accomplishing the same thing. See <a href="./../Classes/Done.html">Done</a> for more detail.<div class='note'><span class='notelabel'>NOTE:</span> One must be careful when using binary operations on UGens with done flags, as these will return a <a href="./../Classes/BinaryOpUGen.html">BinaryOpUGen</a>, and thus prevent the done flag from being accessible. See example below.</div><h2><a class='anchor' name='classmethods'>Class Methods</a></h2>
