Re: [Zope3-Users] Re: how to get zope shutdown event and do some actions at that time?
Thank you Phillip, Just for curiosity, is this zc.async package always going to be a third party or is there any plan of making the package part of regular zope distribution?

I don't know of such plans and I would say it's unlikely. It's also quite irrelevant for the future because Zope 3 will use eggs for its packaging story so installing eggs will likely be necessary either way, so installing a few more eggs won't be much of a problem, I'd say. I don't think the Zope 3 distribution itself will grow much in the future, most interesting development will probably happen in third party packages... like in the boom years of Zope 2. -- http://worldcookery.com -- Professional Zope documentation and training ___ Zope3-users mailing list Zope3-users@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope3-users

One way I can do it is by registering a utility whose __del__( self) method is overridden. Is it a recommended method?

I couldn't find out any timer kind of facility in zope. I was thinking that I could start a thread in the beginning which would work as a timer and create an event on periodic basis. Different subscribers to the event would then be activated which would carry out their piece of work. I would like to have a clean close up of this thread when zope shuts down. But I couldn't find out how to do that. Is there some way to setup some tear down cleanup operations in my application? Thanks for your help.
