class StoppableXMLRPCServer(SimpleXMLRPCServer.SimpleXMLRPCServer):
def serve_forever(self):
"""to stop this server: register a function in the class
that uses it which sets server.stop to True."""
self.stop = False
while not self.stop:
self.handle_request()
Here's the code where I start the server...
try:
self.server.serve_forever()
finally:
self.server.server_close()
self.log('server closed')
>From another thread, I set the server's stop attribute to False, so the server stops running. It exits the try block, runs server_close(), then I get the message 'server closed'...
...but when I try to use the port that the server's bound to again, it takes a very long time (while i try to use the port, catch the exception, sleep, try again) until it becomes free. Is there something else I need to call to ensure that the port is released cleanly? Is this an OS-specific thing out of my control? (I'm running Debian Linux.)
Thanks in advance
Lawrence
