This prevents the
Context
from being garbage collected while theSocket
is still alive, otherwise theSocket
would be closed by theContext
's finalizer while theSocket
is potentially still in use.Fixes #223. The problem is Julia thinking it could delete the
Context
in spite of theSocket
actually needing it. In the function the compiler was probably able to prove it could be GC'd, which is why it was failing in the function but not in the script/REPL.
