You mean 'with'? That's not actually destruction, it just does one of the same jobs that deterministic destruction is used for (RAII). It doesn't, for instance, have any influence on memory usage, nor does it ensure the destruction of the object's referents. But yes, it does achieve (one of) the most important role(s) of destruction. ChrisA -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
