Dynamic multithreading python












0















I am pretty new to python. I am trying to dynamically create some threads but am getting some errors. Can you help me please. If you don't like my code feel free to give me advices.



This is the code:



from multiprocessing import Process
...
for x in range(1, 6):
globals()['p%s' % x] = Process(target=findContent, args=(fileList[curr:curr + fileAmount],))
curr += fileAmount
globals()['p%s' % x].start()
globals()['p%s' % x].join()


And this is the error:

RuntimeError:
An attempt has been made to start a new process before the
current process has finished its bootstrapping phase.

This probably means that you are not using fork to start your
child processes and you have forgotten to use the proper idiom
in the main module:

if __name__ == '__main__':
freeze_support()
...

The "freeze_support()" line can be omitted if the program
is not going to be frozen to produce an executable.

  • I assume a missing if __name__ == '__main__' around the start of the processes causes this (see also this Q&A). Your code will not run in parallel, because you wait for each process to complete before starting the next one (i.e. the <Process>.join() call should be outside the for loop). Not sure if altering the symbol table by creating/altering items on the return value of globals() can be considered a good practice :)

  • I assume a missing if __name__ == '__main__' around the start of the processes causes this (see also this Q&A). Your code will not run in parallel, because you wait for each process to complete before starting the next one (i.e. the <Process>.join() call should be outside the for loop). Not sure if altering the symbol table by creating/altering items on the return value of globals() can be considered a good practice :)
