Hi Gabriel,
I don't quite understand your question. Do you mean to say that you
have written some code with wx and Twisted in an integrated event
loop, and are doing something like reactor.callInThread(someCall), and
when you call reactor.stop the app doesn't exit? AFAIK, any thread
spawning goes through Twisted's internal thread pool and thread
joining should be handled by reactor.stop - I suppose it depends on
what those threads are doing.
Almost :-) I have 2 programs, one is Twisted + wx using the integrated
event loop, as described in the Twisted documentation. This program has
no threads, but I use reactor.callFromThread sometimes from the wx part.
The other program is Twisted with no wx but it uses threads
(threads.deferToThread).
They both have trouble sometimes closing when reactor.stop() is called,
not always though.
Based on my experience with wx and Twisted, I found the following
works quite well:
* Have the reactor run in a seperate thread from wx (making sure to
use reactor.run(installSignalHandlers=False))
* Spawn threads from wx->Twisted in the proper way: use
reactor.callFromThread(reactor.callInThread(someCall))
Hmmm, I'll give that a try later on, does it work better than the
official way of doing it? Has anyone else tried this?
Hope this helped,
Reza
Thanks Reza

Hello everyone,
I have written some code using Twisted that spawns threads and another using
wxPython integration. For some reason when reactor.stop() is called they
don't always exit. I suspect that the reactor is waiting on the threads to
finish, which they apparently don't do, and as for the wx integration, I
don't know, maybe wx's main loop is in a separate thread and it would be the
same problem. Does anyone know/have an idea or has anyone else experienced
this?
Thank you,
Gabriel
