In case Crochet is does not you maybe you can use addSystemEventTrigger with 'startup' and 'after' to have a something called after startup. http://twistedmatrix.com/documents/14.0.0/api/twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorCore.html#addSystemEventTrigger When you want to stop the reactor, make sure you call it from the right thread using reactor.callFromThread(reactor.stop) You can use addSystemEventTrigger to hook into the reactor shutdow process. -- Adi Roiban _______________________________________________ Twisted-Python mailing list Twisted-Python@twistedmatrix.com http://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-python
