Hi, New to Python, but with Java background I'm interested in comments/suggestions for something I'm trying...
I've got a series of events (basically a dictionary of a few key:value pairs) which I'd like to forward onto a web service. That should be no problem, but I'm investigating what I can do when the web service is down for a bit. What I'm considering is to persist the event and trigger a seperate thread to retry the forwarding. What I'm wondering about is if there's a storage method that allows 1 thread writing to the storage while the other thread reads and then deletes from the storage...
Do you need to allow for the sending thread to be restarted as well? In other words, does the queue have to be persistent? If not, you could use Queue.Queue which is intended for this kind of inter-thread communication.
