I was looking at Python 2.4 subprocess.Popen. Quite nice and handy, but I wonder why a "kill" method is missing. I am just adding it via subclassing,
class Popen(subprocess.Popen): def kill(self, signal = SIGTERM): os.kill(self.pid, signal)
but I would prefer to have it in the standard Popen class. I am surprised it is not there. Any comments?
Likely this is at least part of the answer:
c:\>python
Python 2.4 (#60, Nov 30 2004, 11:49:19) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
>>> import os
>>> os.kill
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'kill'
Note the "on win32" part above...
