What do you mean by "safely"? There would be some performance penalty if I am not mistaken, but otherwise doing so should be safe. It's not clear to me why at all you want the PARI instance to get deallocated (upon exit) though. (Ok, its __dealloc__() is currently useless otherwise, and shared libraries shouldn't use global variables anyway.) -leif -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
