2009-08-24T10:20:23.551-07:00

Using thread.interrupt_main() usually totally freezes my application, even if in sometimes it can also work (same conditions, same code, certainly not same timings...). There is no lock or semaphore in the child thread causing this issue

does anobody know in which case this can happen ? nothing is said about this in the python doc. I guess the main thread is doing something wrong (well, not fine to accept the exception maybe ?), but since it is not locked or waiting for the child process involved, I have really no idea...

2008-09-06T16:19:00.000-07:00

Hi Deepak,

The possible reasons for that may be that the packet (in the form of string) may not be terminated with a newline or the buffer may not be flushed, try to add a newline at the end of the packet so that it will be flushed out.

I don't know exactly what you are doing, but check out my socket programming tutorial in C which may help you track if your sequence was right, do look here for the TCP Server/Client socket code in C.

Let me know if this helps.

Hi Im deepak.from India
I have a problem with a client -server code in c++.In program Client tries to communicate to the server by sending a TCP packet.The packet was sent sucessfully..But im not getting it in the other end .Surprisingly when i sent any other packet (may be of same client or other),i can get the packet that was sent before at the server...
I think its a coding bug....I couldnt trace it???
Can u help me out????

2008-08-23T02:00:00.000-07:00

Yes, I should have mentioned about GIL (many people had similar opinion about that too when it comes to python), but this is just a basic introduction to threads, will take it up when I do something advanced, using the threading module.

2008-08-21T18:22:00.000-07:00

What about the Global Interpreter Lock? A discussion of Python threading is incomplete if it fails to mention that Python threads do not execute concurrently and this do not take advantage of multicore processors.

Tragically.

2008-08-14T13:12:00.000-07:00

Yes I came to know about stackless python sometime back, thanks for pointing it out, I will look deep into it as that may be an interesting solution as well.

Good that Python offers a lot many frameworks & tools which makes life easy for coders.

2008-08-13T23:58:00.000-07:00

If you're using Python and want to use a thread-type setup, you might want to look into the Stackless variant. (http://www.stackless.com/)

It uses a more lightweight system where you can share execution through 'tasklets'. It's used by the MMO game "EVE Online" for their game servers. I've been learning it and hoping to use it for my own game project.

2008-08-12T03:09:00.000-07:00

Hi,

I just want to invoke threads using thread.start_new_thread() to keep it simple, even though threading has a private method threading._start_new_thread, I thought it would be better off to call the method from thread module.

I am also planning to write more about threading module, Thread objects and its practical applications in future, this is just an introduction.

2008-08-11T14:16:00.000-07:00

Yes Chris, you are right using join() is the right way of doing it (that involves creating the Thread object and calling those methods), but I just want to keep the code simple using thread.start_new_thread() and the thread module doesn't have a join method.

2008-08-11T13:46:00.000-07:00

A more elegant way to detect the end of child threads is for the main thread to join() the child threads.
