The atexit Module

(2.0 only) The atexit module allows you to register one or more functions that are called when the interpreter is terminated.

To register a function, simply call the register function, as shown in Example 1-78. You can also add one or more extra arguments, which are passed as arguments to the exit function.

Example 1-78. Using the atexit Module

File: atexit-example-1.py

import atexit

def exit(*args):
 print "exit", args

# register two exit handler
atexit.register(exit)
atexit.register(exit, 1)
atexit.register(exit, "hello", "world")

exit ('hello', 'world')
exit (1,)
exit ()

This module is a straightforward wrapper for the sys.exitfunc hook.
