Hello all

I've a program that launches a lot of threads and each of them launches a os.system("my_command").

My program also keeps a list of the launched threads, so I can make "for" loops on the threads.


My aim is to kill everything with ctrl-C (KeyboardInterrupt).

Of course I tried to do

try:
   [...]
except KeyboardInterrupt :
   for task in task_list :
      task.stop()
      #task_list is the list of threads to be killed


It does not work.

How can I produce an "emergency" stop of all processes, including the externals programs that were called by os.system() ?

My aim is of course to write an ultimate log file containing the status of the program when KeyboardInterupt was raised. (if not, the unix command "kill" does the job ;) )


Thanks for any help
have a good day
Laurent
