Re: Problem with copy.deepcopy and multiprocessing.Queue

The problem isn’t with multiprocess.Queue. The problem is that socketserver.ForkingMixIn calls os._exit() after the request is handled by the forked process. Which I did not know until I dug into the internals of socket server.ForkingMixIn. This causes the Finalize() hooks inside of multiproces

Converting tuple of lists of variable length into dictionary

hi to everybody, I must turn a tuple of lists into a dictionary. something like (['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f'], ['g', 'h', 'i'], ['l', 'm', 'n', 'o']) note that the length af each list is variable must return a ['b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f'] b ['a', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f'] c ['a', 'b', 'd', 'e', 'f']

Re: Problem with copy.deepcopy and multiprocessing.Queue

I’ve managed to partially confirm this theory. I switched the HTTPServer to use the ThreadingMixIn instead of the ForkingMixIn. This causes the queue to behave correctly. The queue is created before any items are forked, then all of the processes are forked out that support the HTTPServer. It a

Re: Problem with copy.deepcopy and multiprocessing.Queue

I get why it needs to be called, but this looks like a serious annoyance. Now I need help figuring this out. socketserver.ForkingMixIn needs to use os._exit() so that the process never makes it past handling the request. However, if there is a thread running inside that process that manages a m

Re: Problem with copy.deepcopy and multiprocessing.Queue

Seems I found the cause. os._exit() is used in ForkingMixIn for SocketServer and it’s child classes. Since os._exit() doesn’t flush buffers or clean anything up (hence not running the Finalize hooks that multiprocess.Queue use to make sure data gets flushed), this breaks multiprocess.Queue. ht
