Basic threading example
This runs my_function in a thread loop. Note that you might see "Done!" before the last line of thread output. Welcome to threadland!
#!/usr/bin/env python
import time
import threading
class roller (threading.Thread):
def __init__(self, interval, function, args=[], kwargs={}):
threading.Thread.__init__(self)
self.interval = interval
self.function = function
self.args = args
self.kwargs = kwargs
self.finished = threading.Event()
def cancel(self):
self.finished.set()
def run(self):
while not self.finished.isSet():
self.finished.wait(self.interval)
self.function(*self.args, **self.kwargs)
def my_function (a, b, c):
print "meaningless arguments as an example:", a, b, c
print time.asctime()
print "Calling my_function() in a thread every 1/10th of second for two seconds."
r = roller (0.1, my_function, (1,0,-1))
r.start()
time.sleep(2)
r.cancel()
print "Done!"
Example output:
