Unless the app is delayed from launching until after the assignment finishes though I think a workaround is required. When it's deferred until after the assignment you at least have the ability to get it stored into a global. When it's not deferred I think you're required to something like disable SIGCHLD like you say, spawn the child, enable, and then manually poll each of the subprocess popen objects you've opened before to see if they died while the signal was down. I realize now this isn't really a bug. Principle of least surprise is probably too much to hope for with signals anyway. Feel free to close unless you want to leave it open as a bug to get sigblock/sigsetmask in. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10636> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
