Michael,

You missed the point.
It was-and-is not about decrementing a reference but still having it above
zero, but what happens when the reference becomes zero: is the __del__
method called directly (as I find logical), or is it only called when the
garbage collector actually removes the instance from memory (which Chris
thinks what happens) ?
> No, that is exactly what happens.
No, it doesn't. As a simple bit of testcode has shown me (read my reply to
Chris).
> Be careful who you call stupid. Seriously.
Who did I call stupid ? I mentioned that the language doing it as Chris
thinks it happens would be stupid, and I gave a reason for that (race
conditions everywhere). But odd: Neither him nor you nor anyone else who
complains about me thinking for myself has even /tried/ to shoot holes in my
example (or explain, let alone underbuild their own stance). Do you have
/any/ idea to what that makes me think ? Yeah, exactly that. :-((

True, I'm a newbie learning /Python/. But it is far from the first
language I've used. Experience /does/ count for something you know. :-)
> And that's exactly what Chris and others did. They explained the facts
No, they didn't. They just TOLD me /their/ "facts". Not an explanation
anywhere. :-(
