An opponent of the shooter violating a free-throw provision/requirement/rule is a violation as soon as it occurs, provided the ball is at the shooter's disposal. If the free throw is made, the violation is ignored. - Hence the delayed dead ball signal as soon as the violation occurs - not when the ball is released for the free throw (if the one precedes the other).
