Hi, I don't know if it can help, but if you really don't know where your programcrash/hang occurs, you can use the faulthandler module:
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/faulthandler It can be used to display te backtrace of all threads on an event like a signal or a timeout. It works with Python, but you will need a compiler (like Visual Studio) to install it on Windows. I failed to build a MSI installer on Windows 64-bit with Visual Studio 2010 express. If someone can help me to build MSI, please contact me. The documentation: http://docs.python.org/dev/library/faulthandler.html Victor Le mardi 14 mai 2013, Philippe Fremy a écrit : > Hi, > > I have a reproducable crash on Windows XP with Python 2.7 which I would > like to investigate.
