Kristján Valur Jónsson <krist...@ccpgames.com> added the comment: Here is an updated patch, taking Jim's and Antoine's comments into account.
Jim, I´d like to comment that I think the reason __del__ objects are uncollectable is more subtle than there being no defined order of calling the __del__ functions. More significantly, no python code may be executed during an implicit garbage collection. Now, it is possible that one could clean up cycles containing only one __del__ method during _expcicit_ collections (calling gc.collect()) but it hardly seems worth the effort. ---------- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file25150/gccallback.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10576> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
