Do your objects participate in reference cycles? In that case they are deallocated by the cycle collector, and the cycle collector doesn't invoke __del__. >>> class X(object): ... def __del__(self): print "gone" ... >>> a = X() >>> a = 1 gone >>> b = X() >>> b.someslot = b >>> b = 1 >>> import gc >>> gc.collect() 0 >>> -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
