I have a need to stop a thread on the server from web2py. The thread is running and I've stored the thread id so I can retrieve it when I want to abort. The abort code will look something like this:
for tid, tobj in threading._active.items(): if tid == stored_thread_id: tobj.abort() when I try to call the abort() method on the object however I get the following error: <type 'exceptions.TypeError'> 'bool' object is not callable Version web2py™ Version 2.14.6-stable+timestamp.2016.05.09.19.18.48 Python Python 2.7.11: C:\web2py-ve\Scripts\python.exe (prefix: C:\web2py-ve) Traceback 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12.
