This is in context of a Python module written in Nim.
I have a Nim procedure that Python will use, that will be compiled using
**\--gc:none** and I want it to work like this:
proc pythonProc(self, args: ptr PyObject) =
var
tempString: string
tempSeq: seq[string] = newSeq[string]()
... # Some code that does some work
??? # How to clean up tempString and tempSeq manually ?
Is there a way to implement manual variable cleanup (the last line) with
**\--gc:none** and without resorting to **alloc/dealloc**?
Right now I'm compiling **with the GC enabled** and doing this:
proc pythonProc(self, args: ptr PyObject) =
var
tempString: string
tempSeq: seq[string] = newSeq[string]()
GC_disable() # Needed because some OS'es throw a segfault with the GC
enabled
... # Some code that does some work
GC_enable()
GC_fullcollect()
