Ok yea, then that is what my colleague thought you meant. His solution
looks like this, but it is linux-only:
import signal
import subprocessfrom ctypes import cdll
libc = cdll.LoadLibrary('libc.so.6')
child = subprocess.Popen(["/bin/sleep", "100"], preexec_fn=lambda
*args: libc.prctl(1, signal.SIGTERM, 0, 0, 0))
That would use the C prctrl to set the child death signal to SIGTERM when
the parent dies.
So yea, it isn’t portable, and you would have to search for whatever the
equivalent is in Windows or BSD. That is probably why you might have to
just take on a cross-platform library that handles this stuff.
