I'm fine with keeping sock_dealloc() to call sock_finalize(), but I would like to understand. Example: --- import socket s=socket.socket() s=None --- With this code, sock_finalize() is called before sock_dealloc(): #0 sock_finalize (s=0x7ffff0730c28) at /home/haypo/prog/python/default/Modules/socketmodule.c:4172 #1 0x00000000004d8f59 in PyObject_CallFinalizer (self=<socket at remote 0x7ffff0730c28>) at Objects/object.c:294 #2 0x00000000004d8fcd in PyObject_CallFinalizerFromDealloc (self=<socket at remote 0x7ffff0730c28>) at Objects/object.c:311 #3 0x00000000004f2c8f in subtype_dealloc (self=<socket at remote 0x7ffff0730c28>) at Objects/typeobject.c:1154 #4 0x00000000004dc8ae in _Py_Dealloc (op=<socket at remote 0x7ffff0730c28>) at Objects/object.c:1783 ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26590> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
