Hi,
I'm trying to work out some strange (to me) behaviour that I see when
running a python script in two different ways (I've inherited some
code that needs to be maintained and integrated with another lump of
code). The sample script is:
# Sample script, simply create a new thread and run a
# regular expression match in it.
import re
import threading
class TestThread(threading.Thread):
    def run(self):
        print('start')
        try:
            re.search('mmm', 'mmmm')
        except Exception, e:
            print e
        print('finish')
tmpThread = TestThread()
tmpThread.start()
tmpThread.join()
import time
for i in range(10):
    time.sleep(0.5)
    print i
# end of sample script
Now if I run this using:
$ python ThreadTest.py
then it behaves as expected, ie an output like:
start
finish
0
1
2
...
But if I run it as follows (how the inherited code was started):
$ python -c "import TestThread"
then I just get:
start
I know how to get around the problem but could someone with more
knowledge of how python works explain why this is the case?
Works for me. And I don't see any reason why it shouldn't for you -
unless you didn't show us the actual code.

Strange. That is the code exactly as I run it using python 2.4.4 2.5.1
on Ubuntu 7.10. Which version of python/what platform were you using?
mac-dir:/tmp deets$ python
Python 2.5.1 (r251:54869, Apr 18 2007, 22:08:04)
[GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5367)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

But I doubt this changes anything.

Hmm. Just tested it again on OS X Python 2.4.4 and custom build of
Python 2.4.5 on Debian and get the same results as I had before.

Are you sure that ThreadTest isn't a somewhere else installed module? youc can use python -v to check where python gets it's files.

and how about you attach/paste the full script somewhere?
