python 多线程编程

python实现多线程的两种方法:

1. 使用thread.start_new_thread方法开启多线程，运行指定方法。
2. 创建类，继承threading.Thread类，重写__init__和run方法。启动线程执行的代码在run方法中。

使用thread.start_new_thread实现多线程，代码示例:

# author : YangWan
import thread
import time
def print_current_time(thread_name, delay_number):
    count = 0
    while count < 10:
        time.sleep(delay_number)
        print thread_name + str(time.ctime(time.time()))
        count += 1

try:
    thread.start_new_thread(print_current_time, ('the first print clock thread', 5, ))
    thread.start_new_thread(print_current_time, ('the second print clock thread', 10, ))
except Exception, e:
    print str(e)

while True:
    pass

注解:上面程序通过thread_new_thread启动两个线程，第一个每隔5秒打印当前时间，第二个每隔10秒打印当前时间。

通过继承threading.Thread类实现多线程，代码示例:

# author : YangWan
import threading
import time

class mythread (threading.Thread):

    def __init__(self, thread_name, delay_number, threadID):
        threading.Thread.__init__(self)
        self.thread_name = thread_name
        self.delay_number = delay_number
        self.threadID = threadID
    def run(self):
        print 'the thread is started'
        print 'thread_ID: %s' % self.threadID
        print 'thread_name: %s' % self.thread_name
        print_thread_time(self.thread_name, self.delay_number, self.threadID)
        print 'the thread stoping'
def print_thread_time(thread_name, delay_number, threadID):
    print "This is the %d Thread" % threadID
    count = 0
    while count < 10:
        print thread_name, repr(time.ctime(time.time()))
        count += 1
        time.sleep(delay_number)


thread1 = mythread('Yangwan', 3, 1)
thread2 = mythread('LanLan ', 2, 2)
thread3 = mythread('Xiaoxiao', 10, 3)

thread1.start()
thread2.start()
thread3.start()
print 'starting my thread!'

注解:上启动三个线程，间隔打印当前时间。
