Hi Salman,
here is a simple example servlet. The thread is started when the servlet
is first called and stopped when the AppServer stops.
---------------------------------------------------------------
from ExamplePage import ExamplePage
from time import *
from threading import Thread, Event
class MyThread(Thread):
def __init__(self, interval, id):
Thread.__init__(self)
self.interval = interval
self.id = id
self.time = None
self.stop_event = Event()
def run(self):
while not self.stop_event.isSet():
self.time = ctime(time())
print "thread", self.id, "done at", self.time
self.stop_event.wait(self.interval)
def stop(self):
print "thread", self.id, "shutdown"
self.stop_event.set()
self.join(1)
my_thread = MyThread(2, 4711)
from WebKit.AppServer import globalAppServer
globalAppServer.application().addShutDownHandler(my_thread.stop)
my_thread.start()
class ShowTime(ExamplePage):
def writeContent(self):
self.write('<h1>Thread Test</h1>')
self.write('<h2>Last executed at: ', my_thread.time, '</h2>')
---------------------------------------------------------------
Hope that helps.
