I have a listening socket, self.lsock, which is used in an accept() call as follows

 endpoint = self.lsock.accept()

The problem is that if control-C is pressed it is not recognised until something connects to that socket. Only when the accept() call returns is the signal seen.

The question, then, is how to get the signal to break out of the accept() call. This is currently on Windows but I would like it to run on Unix too. I see from the web that this type of thing is a common problem with the underlying C libraries but I cannot quite relate the posts I have found to Python.

Any ideas?

James
