python如何启动前端,Python + Tkinter，如何在后台独立于tk前端运行？

I'm a tkinter noob.

What would be the preferred way to run a long-running process in the background, separate from my tkinter popup(form?)?

I've read different things about multithreading while using tkinter and can't find a straightforward "do it like this".

To be clear, the behavior I need is, user starts program, tkinter bit pops up saying the process has started. User can dismiss this popup without affecting the rest of the processes. Maybe when the process has finished I can throw up another tkinter popup.

If tkinter is overkill for this, please feel free to suggest a better approach.

Thanks!

Joran Beasley has the right answer, but way overcomplicated things. Here's the simple version:

class Worker(threading.Thread):

def run(self):

# long process goes here

w = Worker()

w.start()

tkMessageBox.showinfo("Work Started", "OK started working")

w.join()

tkMessageBox.showinfo("Work Complete", "OK Done")

Edit: here's a working example of it:

import threading

import time

import tkMessageBox

import Tkinter as tk

root = tk.Tk()

root.withdraw()

class Worker(threading.Thread):

def run(self):

# long process goes here

time.sleep(10)

w = Worker()

w.start()

tkMessageBox.showinfo("Work Started", "OK started working")

root.update()

w.join()

tkMessageBox.showinfo("Work Complete", "OK Done")
