STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@haypocalc.com> added the comment: Dummy question: why don't you use KeyboardInterrupt instead of a custom SIGINT handler?
try: for i in range(1000000): print(i) except KeyboardInterrupt: print("got sigint") Python SIGINT handler raises a KeyboardInterrupt (the handler is written in C, not in Python) which is safe, whereas writing to sys.stdout doesn't look to be a good idea :-) ---------- nosy: +haypo _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10478> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
