It should actually be using TerminateProcess (depending on the Twisted version being used, the relevant code is either in twisted/internet/_dumbwin32proc.py or twisted/internet/win32eventreactor.py, in the signalProcess method in either case), but even this doesn't seem to be a completely reliable way to end a process. Twisted's buildbot has run into this problem as well, but we haven't figure out how to fix it yet. Suggestions welcome - patches even more so :) Jean-Paul _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
