Nevermind. I found a better solution. I used shared memory to create
a keep-alive flag. I then use the select function with a specified
timeout, and recheck the keep-alive flag after each timeout.
Thanx for all the input.

Hi folks.
I'm working on some file indexing software, in python of course.
Over the course of working on it, I've come upon two python+database
related questions:
1) Is there a reason for the gdbm module in python 2.4.1 not to have a get
method? This makes it a touch less dictionary-like.
2)
Here's a dumbed down version of what i'm doing:
import time
import threading
class threader(threading.Thread):
def __init__(self):
threading.Thread.__init__(self)
pass
def run(self):
try:
while 1:
time.sleep(5)

I also need an answer to this problem. I'm using windows. Throwing an
exception in thread B from thread A using a callback function.
The function runs, but the thread never actually catches the exception.
The try/except block is in the run() method (over-riden from the
Thread class)
