I would like to avoid adding Cython specific features that are better served by the general finalisation mechanism of PEP-442.
That could also be used as argument against @cython.no_gc_clear but we still have that anyway.
Second, with PEP-442 you don't have much control over exactly when tp_finalize is called. With tp_dealloc you know for sure that it's called precisely when the object is actually being deallocated (as opposed to planned to be deallocated). For my application, tp_finalize would be too soon: it would put objects in an inconsistent state.
And last but not least, PEP-442 doesn't help for Python 2. Jeroen. _______________________________________________ cython-devel mailing list cython-devel@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/cython-devel
