Every frame in the stack would still need to opt in to deterministic
cleanup of its resources, but the difference is that it becomes an
inline operation within the expression creating the iterator, rather
than a complete restructuring of the function:
def iter_consumer(fname):
for line in function_resource(open(fname)):
...
It doesn't matter *where* the iterator is being used (or even if you
received it as a parameter), you get an easy way to say "When this
function exits, however that happens, clean this up".
Cheers,
Nick.
