Hi there,
I have this example code to illustrate a problem I am having with python3.
It works fine with python 2.6 and 2.7 but does not with python 3.1.
Please, can someone tell me why or how to fix this example?
from __future__ import print_function
import os, subprocess, signal
def signal_handler( signum, frame ):
print( "PID: %s" % pid )
print( "Timed out! Process %s killed, max exec time (%ss) exceeded" %
(pid, timeTol ) )
os.kill( int( pid ), 15 )
raise Exception( "Taking too long to finish... aborting!" )
if __name__ == '__main__':
timeTol = 5
cmd = 'find /'
signal.signal(signal.SIGALRM, signal_handler)
signal.alarm(timeTol)
p = subprocess.Popen(cmd, shell=True, stderr = subprocess.STDOUT, stdout
= subprocess.PIPE)
pid = p.pid
out = str( p.communicate()[0].decode() )
print(out)
Many thanks,
Alan
