Hi everyone, I'm trying to use the threading module with python 2.2 and I have some questions regarding python's threading.
1. Who schedules which threads run and when? Is this something left up to the operating system or does python provide a mechanism for this? 2. I've read that python threads don't like to allow other threads to run except in certain situations, these would be situations where there is sleep or I/O happening, is this true? If so, what are the cases in which a python thread would not give up the processor? 3. Is there a way to which thread is running? I mean something a bit more robust than a print statement inside the thread, I want to be able to see when a context switch occurs, is this possible? The reason for this is I will have threads deadlocked waiting for I/O and I am interested to see how often context switching occurs. Thanks in advance, -carl -- Carl J.
