Hi, I have a very simple Python script that performs some batch processing as follows: a list of system commands is set up in an automated way and then each of the processes is launched separately using threads - a basic producer-consumer thing.
I found a recipe on ASPN on how to intercept keyboard interrupts and that is useful if I need to brutally kill the launching process. However, my question regards killing the actual children threads - they are spending lots of time in system calls, so I cannot insert some while loop in a derived Thread class. Any suggestions would be apreciated. Thanks, -- Gheorghe Postelnicu, PhD MGH, Harvard Medical School -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
