v8 does not guaranty that it will _ever_ call your destructors. It does _not_ clean up automatically when it shuts down. This of course makes life difficult for types which require proper closing or close ordering (e.g., db statements and their drivers), but v8 is really centered on types which can be "thrown away" without running a destructor. > v8::V8::Initialize(); // Initialize v8.

It won't, however, guaranty to run any cleanup of your bound types. In order for you to start seeing your dtor running, you need to create many thousands of them before v8 will start cleaning them up. In short-lived test apps the dtors are rarely run. In all of my bound native types i tend to bind a destroy() method which manually triggers the destruction process. Here's an example of how to do that: https://code.google.com/p/v8-juice/source/browse/convert/include/cvv8/ClassCreator.hpp#980 -- ----- stephan beal http://wanderinghorse.net/home/stephan/ http://gplus.to/sgbeal -- -- v8-users mailing list [email protected] http://groups.google.com/group/v8-users --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "v8-users" group.
