[Webware-devel] Killing wedged threads

[Ian Bicking]

OK, I didn't actually figure out how to kill wedged threads, but I did 
figure out how to (more or less) cleanly exit the process when there's 
wedged threads.  The code is in 
http://svn.colorstudy.com/home/ianb/thread_die.py -- mostly it calls 
os._exit, which exits unconditionally, and it has some guards so that it 
tries to exit as cleanly as possible.

We still don't detect wedged threads, but at least this gives us 
something to do if we did detect those threads.  It probably wouldn't be 
hard to add to ThreadedAppServer -- though there's some added 
infrastructure to figure out what to do when you do find a wedged 
thread.  E.g., maybe it should just send an email, or it should exit 
(code 3), or do both.
