I want to add a timeout so that when I pull out my gps from my serial port, it would wait for a bit then loop and then see if it's there. I also want to add a print statement saying that there is no GPS device found. However when I run my code and unplug my serial port, my code will just hang until I plug it back in. This is my code right now:
def GetGPS(): data = [] #Open com1: 9600,8,N,1 fi = serial.Serial(0, timeout = 1) print '[gps module] SERIAL PORT OPEN ON COM1:' can anyone help me please? Thanks. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
