Hello, I'm wondering if there is an established pattern for having an application running in twistd shut itself down in the absence of a running service?
The idea is that if a service fails it calls self.stopService() and the application shuts itself down somehow (rather than having the service call reactor.stop). Ideally, I was hoping to do with without any specialized code within my service, ie subclass from a ManagedService class or using decorators. I supposed it's possible to write a monitoring service that checks to ensure my service is running, but I'd prefer a tighter coupling like having a FatalException bubble up from the failed service to the application, MultiService, or whatever *should* be calling reactor.stop(). Otherwise, if having service (eventually) stop the reactor is totally antithetical to how things should work in a twistd plugin, then I guess I'll need to rethink things. Thanks, Tad
