how to create a new non-cherrypy process/thread from within cherrypy?

Hi I'm running a TG app and I'm trying to create a second flow of execution (right now I'm just using a thread) this code is in my main controller which is the one being call by TG at the start. def runTurBot():     turbot=TurBot()  ;   log.info("starting TurBot")     #we must take care of the thread, because ircbot wont do it for us.    ; turbot.start() from threading import Thread Thread(target=runTurBot).start() The problem is that somehow 2 threads are created, I'm not sure if this is related to the autoreload function of TG or something to do with cherrypy itself. And I believe there is a way I don't know of doing this with cherrypy. the main loop of my app (which i can not change) is as follows. This is what ends up being call in the turbot.start method     def process_forever(self, timeout=0.2):      ;   while 1:      ;       self.process_once (timeout)     def process_once(self, timeout=0):         sockets = map(lambda x: x._get_socket(), self.connections)         sockets = filter(lambda x: x != None, sockets)     ;    if sockets:     ;        (i, o, e) = select.select(sockets, [], [], timeout)     ;        self.process_data(i)   ;      else:           ;  time.sleep(timeout)     ;    self.process_timeout() so as you can see this is not "thread friendly" but I actually dont need my TG app be aware of the actions of this thread, since they will comunicate thru the DB this is with * TurboGears 0.9a6 * nose 0.8.7.2 * ConfigObj 4.3.1 * RuleDispatch 0.5a0.dev-r2115 * setuptools 0.6a11 * FormEncode 0.5.1 * cElementTree 1.0.5-20051216 * PasteScript 0.5.1 * elementtree 1.2.6 * simplejson 1.3 * SQLObject 0.7.1dev-r1457 * CherryPy 2.2.1 * TurboKid 0.9.5 * TurboCheetah 0.9.5 * TurboJson 0.9.2 * PyProtocols 1.0a0 * Cheetah 1.0 * PasteDeploy 0.5 * Paste 0.5 * FormEncode 0.5.1 * kid 0.9.1 * Cheetah 1.0 * elementtree 1.2.6 --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "cherrypy-users" group.
