python multiprocessing 全局变量_Python - 如何将全局变量传递给multiprocessing.Process？...

I need to terminate some processes after a while, so I've used sleeping another process for the waiting. But the new process doesn't have access to global variables from the main process I guess. How could I solve it please?

Code:

import os

from subprocess import Popen, PIPE

import time

import multiprocessing

log_file = open('stdout.log', 'a')

log_file.flush()

err_file = open('stderr.log', 'a')

err_file.flush()

processes = []

def processing():

print "processing"

global processes

global log_file

global err_file

for i in range(0, 5):

p = Popen(['java', '-jar', 'C:\\Users\\two\\Documents\\test.jar'], stdout=log_file, stderr=err_file) # something long running

processes.append(p)

print len(processes) # returns 5

def waiting_service():

name = multiprocessing.current_process().name

print name, 'Starting'

global processes

print len(processes) # returns 0

time.sleep(2)

for i in range(0, 5):

processes[i].terminate()

print name, 'Exiting'

if __name__ == '__main__':

processing()

service = multiprocessing.Process(name='waiting_service', target=waiting_service)

service.start()

The whole problem was in Windows' Python. Python for Windows is blocking global variables to be seen in functions. I've switched to linux and my script works OK.

Special thanks to @rchang for his comment:

When I tested it, in both cases the print statement came up with 5. Perhaps we have a version mismatch in some way? I tested it with Python 2.7.6 on Linux kernel 3.13.0 (Mint distribution).
