Hello Guys,
I have an application which launches a sub-process using the sub process/Popen module, which seems to work great. However on occasion the launched process will crash, it doesn't appear to full terminate though as when I run a 'top' command from the Linux system the process is still displayed in the list, it just appears to be dormant and the TIME+ for the application stops incrementing. Can I use the poll() method from the sub-process object to test for this? I would love to test it however the crash is so rare it's very difficult to simulate, so thought I'd try and see if anyone has any experience of this. Thanks chaps, Rob
