I did a few tests with this script:
class byebye:
def __del__(self):
print 'Bye, bye...'
x = byebye()
x.del() gets executed if:
-I del x, then run gc.collect()
-simply exit the script
-get the script to abort on an exception
But if I kill it with the default signal TERM, the script dies, but I don't
get the message, so I am assuming that python isn't taking the time to
cleanup, even though that is (was) what TERM was intended for.
Has this been discussed before ? Is worth a suggestion (PEP) ?
