Re: [go-nuts] Is there a way to check if all pending finalizers have been executed?

In that case it's generally "better" to have an explicit Close on your Go type which causes the explicit freeing of C memory. This can be tedious depending on your specific code, though. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group. To

You shouldn't rely on finalisers for the correctness of your program, which is another way of saying, you shouldn't rely on finalisers. Period. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving

re "meaningfullness" - I think he's saying that a finalizer for a function called in a goroutine might not run if main() quits first, intentionally or otherwise. You can of course check for this specific case by making sure all your goroutines are cleaned up before exiting main - but in some

Is there someway to wait for all pending finalizers to be run? I've looked at the finalizer unittest (https://golang.org/src/runtime/mfinal_test.go?h=SetFinalizer) and it looks like it just waits 4 seconds. Is that best-practice? Is there some deterministic way to wait for all pending
