I have the following two threads, called from a method: def uploading_region: uploading_region = AddRegionToServerThread(self,self.SESSION,create_region) while uploading_region.UPLOADING: pass #escape method when uploading_region thread is false
class AddRegionToServerThread(Thread): def __init__(self, window, session, dict): Thread.__init__(self) self.SESSION = session self.DICT = dict #contains dbuser,password, etc self.STATUS = 'Uploading the region. Please wait...' self.WINDOW = window self.dlg = wx.ProgressDialog('Please Wait...', self.STATUS, 100, self.WINDOW, wx.PD_AUTO_HIDE | wx.PD_APP_MODAL) self.RETICULATE = ReticulateSplines(self.dlg) self.UPLOADING = True self.start() def run(self): self.STATUS = 'Adding cities to database. Almost done...' #create database .... self.RETICULATE._Thread__delete() time.sleep(3) #give some extra time self.UPLOADING = False class ReticulateSplines(Thread): def __init__(self,dialog): Thread.__init__(self) self.random_messages=[ 'reticulating splines','hiring code monkeys','are you still watching this?', 'a penny saved is a penny earned','use this as an opportunity to go outside', 'mmm water','drinking decaff coffee','neutering excess bits', 'starting improbability drive','delousing edmontonians'] self.dialog = dialog self.x=1 self.start() def run(self): self.x += 2 self.dialog.Update(self.x,self.random_messages[random.randrange(len(self.random_messages))]) time.sleep(3) self.__init__(self.dialog) Now for some reason, I can't delete the thread 'ReticulateSplines' in the run() function of AddRegionToServerThread(). I call it, but the dialog window doesn't actually close, while, for some reason I am able to terminate AddRegionToServerThread. Any ideas on why? I've tried a combination of things and yet nothing works. Any help would be greatly appreciated. -Thanks Flamesrock -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
