Java finalizers are not called upon VM exit, only when object is swept by GC (for example when the object is destroyed upon program exit), the CPython docs read that this is the case for Python too. Is this behaviour standard for all VM implementations or is implementation-dependent (CPython, Jython, IronPython)? -- Jarek Zgoda Skype: jzgoda | GTalk: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | voice: +48228430101 "We read Knuth so you don't have to."
