Instance Methods

[hide private]

__init__(self, label, on_start_item=<function <lambda> at 0xd008f7c>, on_finish_item=<function <lambda> at 0xd008fb4>)
x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature

source code

interrupt(self)
Raises KeyboardInterrupt in the Task thread, only if it's running something.

source code

stop(self)
Causes the Task thread to stop servicing and terminate after finishing the current item, if any.

source code

do(self, *argv, **kw)
Enqueues argv[0](*argv[1:], **kw).

source code

run(self)
Override this method to make the Task thread do something.

init(self, label, on_start_item=<function <lambda> at 0xd008f7c>, on_finish_item=<function <lambda> at 0xd008fb4>)
(Constructor)

source code

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature

Overrides: object.__init__: (inherited documentation)

interrupt(self)

source code

Raises KeyboardInterrupt in the Task thread, only if it's running something.

Overrides: Task.interrupt

do(self, *argv, **kw)

source code

Enqueues argv[0](*argv[1:], **kw). For example:

>>> myHomunculus.do(sys.stdout.write, 'Hello world')

causes this to happen in the Task thread:

>>> sys.stdout.write('Hello world')

run(self)

source code

Override this method to make the Task thread do something.

Overrides: Task.run: (inherited documentation)
