Hi All, I posted this several days ago in python mailing list but got no response and I think it might be a bug, so I post it here. Apologize if it's not appropriate.
I have a file p.zip, there is a __main__.py in it, and the content of __main__.py is: from multiprocessing import Process import os def f(): print 'in f, pid:', os.getpid() if __name__ == '__main__': print 'pid:', os.getpid() p = Process(target=f) p.start() p.join() On linux, I can get expected result for running "python p.zip" But on windows xp, I got: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in <module> File "C:\python27\lib\multiprocessing\forking.py", line 346, in main prepare(preparation_data) File "C:\python27\lib\multiprocessing\forking.py", line 454, in prepare assert main_name not in sys.modules, main_name AssertionError: __main__ It seems that the situation described here is similar: http://bugs.python.org/issue10128 But the patch doesn't work for me. Anybody knows how to fix this? Thanks. -- Best Regards, Leo Jay _______________________________________________ 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
