Referring to : http://itmaurer.com/jython/htdocs/presentation.html it says: Differences between CPython and Jython Some examples: * __del__ is not reliable because the Java garbage collector is used In other words, __del__ should not be used with Jython, since java garbage collection is used and with the JVM, actual collection can be a loonngg time coming. I do not think this is going to change in later versions of Jython. I believe I've read a number of times that relying on __del__ for "resource release" is not recommended. -- Brad Clements, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (315)268-1000 http://www.murkworks.com AOL-IM or SKYPE: BKClements ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
