How to control a subthread process in python?
- by SpawnCxy
Code first:
'''this is main structure of my program'''
from twisted.web import http
from twisted.protocols import basic
import threading
threadstop = False #thread trigger,to be done
class MyThread(threading.Thread):
def __init__(self):
threading.Thread.__init__(self)
self.start()
def run(self):
while True:
if threadstop:
return
dosomething()
'''def some function'''
if __name__ == '__main__':
from twisted.internet import reactor
t = MyThread()
reactor.listenTCP(serverport,myHttpFactory())
reactor.run()
As my first multithread program,I feel happy that it works as expected.But now I find I cannot control it.If I run it on front,Control+C can only stop the main process,and I can still find it in processlist;if I run it in background,I have to use kill -9 pid to stop it.And I wonder if there's a way to control the subthread process by a trigger variale,or a better way to stop the whole process other than kill -9.Thanks.
