hey all, For my study I'm writing a simple threaded webcrawler and I am trying to do this in python. But somehow, using threads causes IDLE to crash on Windows XP (with the latest python distribution 2.5.1). Even a simple example such as this:
import thread, time def doSomething(): print "something" for i in range(2): thread.start_new(doSomething, ()) causes IDLE to freeze when I type it in the interpreter. Using the python command line everything works just fine. Using IDLE on Debian linux also does not cause anything to crash. What am I overlooking? regards, Writser Cleveringa -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
