sys.exit() will raise an exception, SystemExit. It's certainly possible that raising it will cause problems, though I wouldn't expect it to keep threads from exiting. It's possible there's some race condition involved that is less likely to happen due to this change. Regardless, You should not call it if you're using Twisted (or if you do, it should be called after reactor.run()). _______________________________________________ Twisted-Python mailing list Twisted-Python@twistedmatrix.com http://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-python
