Hallo!
I have a problem with this little script written in Python: import sys, os, time texts = ['this is text1', 'this is text 2'] for current_text in env_sources[0:]: pid = os.fork() if pid == 0: time.sleep(2) print current_text break As you is create some child processes depending on the number of vars in ?texts?. My problem is: How can I run some code after all child processes have been finished? (The code should be run only in the parent process.) I tried: import sys, os, time texts = ['this is text1', 'this is text 2'] for current_text in texts[0:]: pid = os.fork() if pid == 0: time.sleep(2) print current_text break os.waitpid(-1, 0) print 'this is the end' But this didn't work, 'this is the end' will be showed several times. Can you help me? Tanks. Markus -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
