New submission from Patricio Mariano Molina <patriciomol...@gmail.com>:
I couldn't find anything like os.pid_exists() in Python 2.5/2.6, neither
in bugs.python.org (this *could* be a dupe)
Do we have something like that?
Right now I'm doing this:
try:
os.kill(int(pid), 0)
return True
except OSError:
return False
I'd love to do the same without catching an exception (they're
expensive!), maybe in C?
Thanks!
