I'm running a GUI in python which is able to launch a separate python
process
that will run forever. In rare cases I will want to kill the launched
process.
Every time I do so, I end up with the process as defunct. Can anybody
help me
clean it up in a nice way?
On request from GUI I do the following:
os.kill(process.pid,9)
FYI, it is all running on Linux.
You should call os.waitpid() after killing the child process, to let the
OS free the resources allocated to it.
