I've been trying to get garbage collection of circular references to work properly with no success then I noticed the documentation stating that it just doesn't:
>From documentation on Py_Finalize() -> "Memory tied up in circular references between objects is not freed. " I copy pasted the Noddy example for circular reference breaking from the documentation and set a break point in its Noddy_dealloc function and sure enough even that simple example doesn't work properly. So what's the deal here? :) I want all objects to be freed when I shut down and their destruction functions to be properly called. Is there really no way to make this happen? Many thanks for any insights, Jim -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
