The following discussion section in the weakref docs: http://docs.python.org/dev/library/weakref.html#comparing-finalizers-with-del-methods which was added in 3.4, is out of date because of the GC improvements. It should be tweaked to match the new reality. (I've already deleted the Note under __callback__.) | ||

The following from the docs is wrong: > ... module globals are no longer forced to None during interpreter > shutdown. Actually, in 3.4 module globals *sometimes* get forced to None during interpreter shutdown, so the version the __del__ method can still raise an exception. |
