Well, I don't know what you mean. tp_dealloc should always be "safe" and is never checked for by the GC. By the way, tp_del isn't even documented, which reinforces my point that it's not really for use by third-party extension types. I think we are reaching the point where, if you want this to happen, you should ask for opinions on python-dev, because I really don't understand which problem you are trying to solve. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9141> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
