python 64式: 第34式、threading的Event用法

# -*- encoding: utf-8 -*-

from datetime import datetime
import threading
import time

from oslo_utils import timeutils

'''
1 threading.Event
作用: 用于线程间通信的变量，本质是一个类似布尔值的变量。
常用方法:

is_set(): 判断该变量是否为空，默认为空
set(): 设置该变量的值为True
clear(): 清空该变量，即设置值为False
wait(timeout): 等待一定时间，超时则不再等待,可用于线程sleep

2 一种用threading.Event模拟time.sleep的方法
def useEventSimulateSleep(event, interval):
    while not event.is_set():
        with timeutils.StopWatch() as timer:
            elapsed = timer.elapsed(0)
            diff = interval - elapsed
            timeout = max(0, diff)
            print "time: {curTime}, elapsed: {elas}, timeout: {timeout}".format(
                elas=elapsed, timeout=timeout,
                curTime=datetime.now()
            )
            event.wait(timeout)
    event.set()
