I was reading in the documentation about __del__ and have a couple of questions. Here is what I was looking at:
http://docs.python.org/reference/datamodel.html#object.__del__ What is globals referring to in the following text from that reference page? "Starting with version 1.5, Python guarantees that globals whose name begins with a single underscore are deleted from their module before other globals are deleted; if no other references to such globals exist, this may help in assuring that imported modules are still available at the time when the __del__() method is called." Thus those with an _ get deleted before everything else. This is not referring to members of my objects is it, such that those members starting with _ get deleted first? I suppose that would delete __del__ before it would get called so I assume that is not the case. But I want to be sure about that behavior and exactly what globals is. Is globals meaning the contents of "globals" or something else. I ask because sometimes some words get used for varied meanings. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
