New submission from Skip Montanaro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: I worked up a simple example of using the external processing module (0.52) for a friend at work today. I noticed some cases where it raised exceptions during exit. Not all the time, but not infrequently either. This evening I tweaked it for the 2.6 multiprocessing module's API and tried it out. I ran it in a large loop:
for i in $(range 500) ; do echo '!'$i python test_proc.py end | egrep '!' Most of the time all I see are the '!' lines from the echo command. Every once in awhile I see a traceback though. For example: Exception in thread QueueFeederThread (most likely raised during interpreter shutdown): Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/skip/local/lib/python2.7/threading.py", line 522, in __bootstrap_inner File "/Users/skip/local/lib/python2.7/threading.py", line 477, in run File "/Users/skip/local/lib/python2.7/multiprocessing/queues.py", line 233, in _feed <type 'exceptions.TypeError'>: 'NoneType' object is not callable This occurred once in approximately 1500 runs of the script (three times through the above shell loop). The script used to trigger this exception is attached. ---------- components: Library (Lib) files: test_proc.py messages: 74656 nosy: skip.montanaro priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: multiprocessing occasionally spits out exception during shutdown type: behavior versions: Python 2.7 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file11771/test_proc.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4106> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
