Hello, I am using Python 2.7 on Windows 10 and I want to launch a process independently of the rest of the code so that the execution continues while the started process proceeds. I am using Process().start() from Python 2.7 as follows:
from multiprocessing import Process def do_something(text): print(text) if __name__ == "__main__": q = Process(target=do_something,args=("somecmd") ) q.start() # following code should execute right after the q.start() call (not until it returns) ..... But getting the error at the call of Process().start(): pickle.PicklingError: Can't pickle <type 'module'>: it's not found as __builtin__.module anybody could provide an alternative to call the function do_something() in a separate thread ? -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
