Was wondering if someone could point out what the stupid thing I'm doing wrong is:
{{{ import os, time def run_multi_proc(): server_send, logger_recieve = os.pipe() pid = os.fork() if pid == 0: # we are the logger #os.close(server_send) logger_recieve = os.fdopen(logger_recieve) time.sleep(20) else: # we are the server #os.close(logger_recieve) server_send = os.fdopen(server_send,"w") time.sleep(3) os.kill(pid,signal.SIGTERM) if __name__ == "__main__": run_multi_proc() }}} > python test.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "test.py", line 20, in <module> run_multi_proc() File "test.py", line 9, in run_multi_proc logger_recieve = os.fdopen(logger_recieve) OSError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument Traceback (most recent call last): File "test.py", line 20, in <module> run_multi_proc() File "test.py", line 15, in run_multi_proc server_send = os.fdopen(server_send,"w") OSError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument really confused about why this isn't working - running on Linux with python 2.5.2 Tim W -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
