python - How to run another process in a loop on a different thread -

-

i creating gui application(wxpython). need run (.exe) application gui application. subprocess perform operation on user action , return output gui application

i running subprocess in loop, subprocess available execute. doing is, start thread(so gui not freeze) , popen subprocess in loop. not sure if best way.

self.thread = threading.thread(target=self.run, args=()) self.thread.setdaemon(true) self.thread.start()  def run(self):         while self.is_listening:             cmd = ['application.exe']             proc = subprocess.popen(cmd, stdout=subprocess.pipe, stderr=subprocess.stdout)             proc.wait()             data = ""             while true:                 txt = proc.stdout.readline()                     data = txt[5:].strip()                     txt += data

now happens is, if main application shutdown, thread still waiting user action never came. how can exit cleanly? application.exe process can still seen in process list, after gui app has exited. suggestions improve whole thing welcome.

thanks

1) make 'proc' instance attribute, can call it's terminate() or kill() methods before exiting.

self.thread = threading.thread(target=self.run, args=()) self.thread.setdaemon(true) self.thread.start()  def run(self):     while self.is_listening:         cmd = ['application.exe']         self.proc = subprocess.popen(cmd, stdout=subprocess.pipe, stderr=subprocess.stdout)         self.proc.wait()         data = ""         while true:             txt = self.proc.stdout.readline()             data = txt[5:].strip()             txt += data

2) use variable tell thread stop (you need use poll() in loop, instead of using wait()).

self.exit = false self.thread = threading.thread(target=self.run, args=()) self.thread.setdaemon(true) self.thread.start()  def run(self):     while self.is_listening:         cmd = ['application.exe']         proc = subprocess.popen(cmd, stdout=subprocess.pipe, stderr=subprocess.stdout)         while proc.poll() none or not self.exit:             pass         data = ""         while true:             if self.exit:                 break             txt = proc.stdout.readline()             data = txt[5:].strip()             txt += data

the 'atexit' module documentation can calling things @ exit.

magically formatted comments change reported line number of javascript errors in browsers; this: //@line n "f" n line number , f file name. unfortunately, //@line appears ungoogleable. know there documentation on feature, , browsers support it?

c# - Is it possible to remove an existing registration from Autofac container builder? -

-
something along lines: builder.registertype<mytype>().as<itype>(); builder.registertype<mytype2>().as<itype>(); builder.deregistertype<mytype>().as<itype>() var container = builder.build(); var types = container.resolve<ienumerable<itype>>(); assert.istrue(types.count == 1); assert.istrue(types[0].gettype == typeof(mytype2)); scenario: go through bunch of assemblies , go register types want make sure have 1 implementation of given type. need before create container. track on own nice if autofac me bit. this cannot done directly using containerbuilder , unless start on new one. mind you, having first built container should able construct new container filtering away unwanted types , reusing registrations first container. this: ... var container = builder.build(); builder = new containerbuilder(); var components = container.componentregistry.registrations .where(cr => cr.activator.limittype != typ...

php - Mysql PK and FK char(36) vs int(10) -

-
i have read mysql can handle indexes , searches better if tables keys integers rather char(36) uuid's. is worth converting int(10)? note: use 1 server , have have plans use multiple databases concurrently therefore removing 1 of big reasons using uuid. our tables innodb if makes difference. thanks in advance. usually rdbms can handle integer keys pk more efficient, other datatypes. reason how build index column, yes: long dont require string (or other typed) keys, should use integers. however: char(36) , int(10) far away being equal, because int(10) much smaller, char(36). dont know, if require many different keys, should keep in mind. update, complete last paragraph: int(10) 32-bit, char(36) 36 - ^byte^ (= 288-bit). not mean, int consumes less space, means, char(36) has 4 times more different keys.
