Hello everyone, I have some services written that I'd like to run in a ta.c w/ twistd. One of them uses wxpython. I originally used the wxreactor but it seams to have some problems on Mac OS X and Windows, so with help from some people on this list I ended up using the wx mainloop as the mainloop and putting the reactor in a separate thread. This seams to work well, but now that I want to create a .tac I don't think this is possible.
The problem that prompted me to create a .tac is that if I want to use py2app, I need just one main file and my app works using a launcher that accepts a service name as a param and it takes care of running it. On Windows with py2exe, I had created a main script that called the launcher with the param in a new process. Py2exe is capable of creating several .exe files, so I would generate the launcher and the main script. Not being able to do this with py2app I though of ditching my launcher and using twistd. Even in the event that I got everything to work with the wx reactor, from what I understand twistd uses one reactor (that can be specified via command-line), and thus I would either have to use the wxreactor for all the services (which doesn't work), or a standard reactor, but then it's my wx service that won't work. I thought of maybe putting the wx mainloop in a thread and using the standard reactor but I don't know how well this works or even if it's possible. Does anyone have an idea? I'm open to all suggestions and proposals, Gabriel _______________________________________________ Twisted-Python mailing list Twisted-Python@twistedmatrix.com http://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-python
