Why are you making main a class? It should almost certainly be a function (defined with "def", not "class"). > for i in dircache.listdir(dir): > //run over files > class1(dir).start() You've started a bunch of threads. If you want to wait for them to all finish, you need to call .join() on them all. You can't do that unless you save references to your threads, like this: threads = [] for i in dircache.listdir(dir): new_thread = class1(dir) new_thread.start() threads.append(new_thread) for thread in threads: thread.join() Beyond that, the code you've posted is not correct. You've left off a required ":" in your definition of class main, and your comments are not valid python comments. Your for loops don't make a whole lot of sense to me either. Are they supposed to be iterating across files in a directory? If so, why do you start up all of your threads with "dir" instead of "i" or "j" as the parameter to your new thread? -- Jerry -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
