Ralf Schmitt added the comment: Well, one child isn't the maximum. All children which do not finish before the last client connects, will live on as zombies (and will be collected when the next client connects). If that is acceptable, then just close this report.
Using signals would be easier if http://bugs.python.org/issue1089358 goes in. But even then a single accept call might not suffice and the code might need to select on the listening socket and another filedescriptor (on which the signal handler writes). The simplest solution might be to use select with a timeout and check for dead children periodically. (and sorry for not filling out the complete form.) __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1954> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
