Cool idea, thank you. Do you know where I can find an example/documentation?
Thank you,GE.

It's not possible to do it for an arbitrary object, as far as I know. But my
workaround is to create a custom class that is a "finalizer object", and then
attach as a (hidden) property to any arbitrary object. I can then use the
finalizer object to observe when the arbitrary object gets collected. The
finalizer object gets collected at the same time as the arbitrary object; just
ensure that the finalizer object is only referenced by that object.

Is possible to define a finalizer/destructor for an object? Something like
Duktape's fin function:
.fin(object, function(self) { ... } )
From the documentation: "When defining a new JS class, it is possible to
declare a finalizerwhich is called when the object is destroyed. ".
Is this possible for an arbitrary object? If yes, how?
Great project,GE.
