To make that reliable on Windows you could create a silent-breakaway, kill-on-close Job object in each process for its daemon children. Closing the job handle would cascade terminate all descendant daemon processes in that branch of the process tree, i.e. when a process is terminated it closes the Job handle, which terminates all of its daemon children, which closes their Job handles, which terminates all of their daemon children, and so on. Non-daemons would still be orphaned when the parent is terminated. ---------- nosy: +eryksun _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5906> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
