Category: Python Library Group: Python 2.4 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Yang Zhang (yangzhang) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Logging hangs thread after detaching a StreamHandler's termi Initial Comment: Hi all, After many hours, I think I've found a bug in the logging module! If you add a (stdout) StreamHandler to a logger, then detach the terminal for that stdout, subsequent calls to log() will hang the calling thread. To reproduce this, write the following scripts (this was a small test case I came up with - maybe there's something simpler): $ cat tryhup.bash #!/usr/bin/env bash scp hup.* localhost: ssh localhost './hup.bash ; while true ; do sleep 1 ; done' $ cat hup.bash #!/usr/bin/env bash ./hup.py & $ cat hup.py #!/usr/bin/env python import time import logging f = file( '/tmp/hup.out', 'w' ) try: logging.basicConfig( filename = '/tmp/lup.out', filemode = 'w' ) # XXX PROBLEM LINE BELOW logging.getLogger('').addHandler( logging. StreamHandler() ) while True: f.write( '-------\n' ) f.flush() logging.critical( '======' ) time.sleep(1) finally: f.close() Run ./tryhup.bash. It will sit in an idle spin. Monitor the files /tmp/hup.out and /tmp/lup.out. Hit Ctrl-C on tryhup to kill it. The python process is still running, but is stalled (the .out files are no longer changing). If you remove the above labeled line, however, this doesn't happen. Can anybody please acknowledge this bug? Any temporary workarounds to this problem? Thanks in advance for looking into this and for hearing me in! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1431253&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
