python子进程能再开进程吗_Python可以杀死继续运行的子进程吗？

Suppose we spawn a child process with Popen. I''m thinking of an

executable file, like a compiled C program.

Suppose it is supposed to run for one minute, but it just keeps going

and going. Does Python have any way to kill it?

This is not hypothetical; I''m doing it now, and it''s working pretty

well, but I would like to be able to handle this run-on condition. I''m

using Windows 2000, but I want my program to be portable to linux.

Thanks

On linux it''s pretty easy to do, just setup alarm signal. On windows

it''s not so trivial to the point you cannot do it using python.org

distribution, you will need to poke in low level C API using win32

extensions or ctypes. AFAIK twisted package

has some code to help you. Also take a look at buildbot sources

that uses twisted. Buildbot has the same

problem as you have, it needs to kill run away or non-responding

processes.

That is bad news. Thanks anyway; bad news is better than no news.

Note, however, taht ctypes is planned to be a part of the 2.5

distribution, so while there may not be a platform-independent way to

achieve your goals you will at leats be able to do so without external

extensions.
