But I do: the CherryPy "application", which has multiple threads - one per request (and perhaps a few more) to be exact. It's these request threads that generate the calls to the child process. > > Let there be a Queue for EVERY LISTENER. > > Send the Queue as part of the request packet. No luck: "RuntimeError: Queue objects should only be shared between processes through inheritance" This IS a master process, with multiple threads, trying to communicate with a child process. That said, with some modifications this sort of approach could still work. ----------------------------------------------- Israel Brewster Systems Analyst II Ravn Alaska 5245 Airport Industrial Rd Fairbanks, AK 99709 (907) 450-7293 ----------------------------------------------- > > Let the subthread reply to the queue that was provided via the packet > > Voila!
