Ask Solem <a...@opera.com> added the comment: It seems that Process.terminate is not meant to be used by the child, but only the parent.
>From the documentation: "Note that the start(), join(), is_alive() and exit_code methods should only be called by the process that created the process object." Either terminate() should be added to this list, or terminate should be patch to call sys.exit in a child process. I vote for the former, so I attached a doc patch. ---------- keywords: +patch Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file19466/i8028.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8028> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
