I've been trying to figure out how to trigger the garbage collect. Do you have any clues Greg? This is EXACTLY what's happening.

It looks like some tkinter objects are becoming part of garbage cycles, and getting collected by whatever thread happens to be running when the cyclic gc kicks in. Seems to me this is fundamentally tk's fault for assuming that __del__ methods will be called from any particular thread. As a workaround, maybe you could manually trigger a gc whenever you dispose of a widget. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Tkinter-discuss mailing list Tkinter-discuss@python.org https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmail.python.org%2Fmailman%2Flistinfo%2Ftkinter-discuss&data=02%7C01%7C%7Cceb5540d0dbd43ea8f0208d781afad89%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637120463832895147&sdata=b8%2BnDr1VkUzIBS5ut1e4fg%2FeUhUDx%2BkNeE6f56370%2FQ%3D&reserved=0 _______________________________________________ Tkinter-discuss mailing list Tkinter-discuss@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tkinter-discuss
