After some discussion on #parrot last week, we wanted to try and get GC finalization working. I've created the whiteknight/gc_finalize branch to try and do exactly that. This branch makes some non-trivial changes to the interpreter destruction sequence, enables GC finalization unconditionally, and removes the --leak-test commandline option (which was optionally activating a broken version of gc finalization).
Right now the branch is passing coretest. I don't have a lot of time to do more testing on it today. If other people would like to give it a spin that would be great. I am particularly interested in seeing various test results and checking test suite performance Thanks, --Andrew Whitworth _______________________________________________ http://lists.parrot.org/mailman/listinfo/parrot-dev
