Hi Everyone, I'm puzzled by the following problem: If I do plot updates by using a callback triggered by the multiprocessing module's apply_async then the updates do not take - only the final result is shown, as if in non-interactive mode.
What could be the cause for this? Are there known issues using the multiprocessing module and interactive mode in matplotlib. Thanks! -Kaushik matplotlib.__version__ -> '0.99.1.1' Example code is below: import pylab import time from multiprocessing import Pool pylab.ion() x = pylab.arange(0,2*pylab.pi,0.01) line, = pylab.plot(x,pylab.sin(x)) start_time = time.time() def time_waster(): time.sleep(1) def plot(Dummy=None): t = time.time() - start_time print t line.set_ydata(pylab.sin(x+t/1.0)) pylab.draw() for i in range(200): plot() pool = Pool() for N in range(60): pool.apply_async(time_waster,(),{},plot) pool.close() pool.join() ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Start uncovering the many advantages of virtual appliances and start using them to simplify application deployment and accelerate your shift to cloud computing. http://p.sf.net/sfu/novell-sfdev2dev _______________________________________________ Matplotlib-users mailing list Matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/matplotlib-users
