Great - so it wasn't a problem with the TCPClient after all :-) > For some reason, my Listener doesn't quit. I thought > it's sufficient to exit the main method in some way to quit a > component?

It is sufficient, and running with Kamaelia from /trunk, your listener does indeed shutdown correctly - so it looks like it's a bug in that release of Kamaelia. That's my bad really because we haven't done a full release in quite some time. Looking at the old code, it appears that in that code the TCPClient wasn't forwarding shutdown messages correctly, so there *was* a bug, but there doesn't seem to be now. My suggestion for the moment would be to use the code on /trunk since this is stable at present (development happens on branches rather than /trunk) and that I really ought to sort out the next release - I really hadn't realised just how long it had been since the last release! steps: ~> svn co https://kamaelia.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/kamaelia/trunk kamaelia-trunk ~> cd kamaelia-trunk ~/kamaelia-trunk> cd Code/Python/Axon ~/kamaelia-trunk/Code/Python/Axon> sudo python setup.py install ~/kamaelia-trunk/Code/Python/Axon> cd ../Kamaelia ~/kamaelia-trunk/Code/Python/Kamaelia> sudo python setup.py install I've tested using this, and your code works as you'd expect.
