# destructor

### Description

@short: Destroys a scheduler instance

@signature: destructor: () =\> void

### Example

~~~jsx
var myScheduler = Scheduler.getSchedulerInstance();
 
//destroying a scheduler instance
myScheduler.destructor();
~~~

### Details

The method destroys a scheduler instance and calls the [onDestroy](api/event/ondestroy.md) event.

Calling the destructor will:

- clear the data loaded into a scheduler instance
- destroy the [DataProcessor](api/method/dataprocessor.md) (if it is attached to the scheduler)
- detach the scheduler from DOM
- detach all DOM events attached via the [title:  method](api/method/event.md) method

:::note

If you use a package that does not allow creating multiple instances of a scheduler (GPL or Individual editions), calling the scheduler destructor will make scheduler inaccessible until a page is reloaded.
