I hope somebody here can help me out here.

I have a Python COM server which I call from Excel. The Python object is a bit complex and its __del__ method is not called when the reference count to the object from within Excel go to 0. For this reason I have a CleanUp method that makes sure all the resources are released. My problem is that I want to make sure that this CleanUp method is always called when there are not more references to the COM server.

So, my question is: is there a way to know when the reference count of the COM object goes to 0 ? For example, when Excel does not use it anymore and the variable is set to Nothing?


I looked quite a bit in the archive of the mailing list with no luck.

thanks,
Raul
