我试图了解如何使用线程,我在http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/aix/library/au-threadingpython/遇到了这个很好的例子
#!/usr/bin/env python
import Queue
import threading
import urllib2
import time
hosts = ["http://yahoo.com", "http://google.com", "http://amazon.com",
"http://ibm.com", "http://apple.com"]
queue = Queue.Queue()
class ThreadUrl(threading.Thread):
"""Threaded Url Grab"""
def __init__(self, queue):
threading.Thread.__init__(self)
self.queue = queue
def run(self):
while True:
#grabs host from queue
host = self.queue.get()
#grabs urls of hosts and prints first 1024 bytes of page
url = urllib2.urlopen(host)
print url.read(1024)
#signals to queue job is done
self.queue.task_done()
start = time.time()
def main():
#spawn a pool of threads, and pass them queue instance
for i in range(5):
t = ThreadUrl(queue)
t.setDaemon(True)
t.start()
#populate queue with data
for host in hosts:
queue.put(host)
#wait on the queue until everything has been processed
queue.join()
main()
print "Elapsed Time: %s" % (time.time() - start)
我不明白的部分是为什么该run
方法有一个无限循环:
def run(self):
while True:
... etc ...
只是为了笑,我在没有循环的情况下运行了程序,它看起来运行良好!那么有人可以解释为什么需要这个循环吗?另外,由于没有 break 语句,循环如何退出?
