Just to ensure memory gets freed. If one were doing it to rely on C++ destructors triggering some other important behavior to the program, when a finalizer triggers the destructor, then it would be wrong. > > John > > John Souvestre - New Orleans LA > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "golang-nuts" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to golang-nuts+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
