STINNER Victor added the comment: "The cycle will be cleaned up (and the message printed) when the garbage collector runs next."
Oh, ok. Using the following task, the object is correctly deleted. --- @asyncio.coroutine def idle(): while 1: gc.collect() yield from asyncio.sleep(0.1) asyncio.Task(idle()) --- "Maybe it's time to look into http://code.google.com/p/tulip/issues/detail?id=42 ? (It proposes to run gc.collect() occasionally when the loop is idle.)" I don't like such task. The issue can be documented, maybe with an example of call calling gc.collect() regulary? Such background task should be implemented in the application to control when the garbage collector is called. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20032> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
