python - threading.Condition.wait(timeout) ignores threading.Condition.notify() -

-

i have application uses 2 threads. want able shut down both threads waiting condition variable exitcondition. using python 3.3 unlike python 2.7 makes threading.condition.wait() return true when condition notified , false when timeout occured.

#!/usr/bin/python import threading time import sleep  exitcondition = threading.condition()  def inputactivity():     while true:         exitcondition.acquire()         exitconditionreached = exitcondition.wait(.1) #<-critical         print(exitconditionreached)         exitcondition.release()         if exitconditionreached: #exitcondition reached -> shutdown             return         else: #exitcondition not reached -> work             sleep(.1)  inthread = threading.thread(target = inputactivity) inthread.start()  sleep(.2) #<-critical  exitcondition.acquire() exitcondition.notify() print("exitcondition notified") exitcondition.release()  inthread.join()

there 2 lines #<-critical comment in line 10 , 21. if sleeps "misaligned" (for example .25 , .1) program terminate. if sleeps "aligned" (for example .2 , .1) inthread run indefinitely printing false forever. looks race condition me, apparently if notify called @ same time wait notification not recognized. under impression exitcondition.acquire() , exitcondition.release() supposed prevent that. question why condition variable not thread safe , can it. ideally want write wait(0) guarantee no notification swallowed.

if call exitcondition.notify occurs when worker thread doing work (i.e., in sleep(.1) call (or anywhere else other .wait call), behaviour describe sounds i'd expect. wait call returns true if notification happened during wait.

it sounds me though use-case threading.event instead of threading.condition: replace threading.condition threading.event, replace notify call set call, , remove acquire , release calls altogether (in both threads).

that is, code should this:

#!/usr/bin/python import threading time import sleep  exitcondition = threading.event()  def inputactivity():     while true:         exitconditionreached = exitcondition.wait(.1) #<-critical         print(exitconditionreached)         if exitconditionreached: #exitcondition reached -> shutdown             return         else: #exitcondition not reached -> work             sleep(.1)  inthread = threading.thread(target = inputactivity) inthread.start()  sleep(.2) #<-critical  exitcondition.set() print("exitcondition set")  inthread.join()

once you've got far, don't need first .wait: can replace direct is_set call see if exit condition has been set yet:

#!/usr/bin/python import threading time import sleep  exitcondition = threading.event()  def inputactivity():     while true:         if exitcondition.is_set(): #exitcondition reached -> shutdown             return         else: #exitcondition not reached -> work             sleep(.1)  inthread = threading.thread(target = inputactivity) inthread.start()  sleep(.2) #<-critical  exitcondition.set() print("exitcondition set")  inthread.join()

C# random value from dictionary and tuple -

-
i have following code, , need random item contains string "region_1" dictionary. public static dictionary<int, tuple<string, int, currencytype>> itemarray = new dictionary<int, tuple<string, int, currencytype>>() { { 0xb3e, new tuple<string, int, currencytype>("region_1", 1500, currencytype.fame) } }; public static int generateitemid(string shopid) { var generateditem = itemarray.elementat(new random().next(0, itemarray.count)).key; } how select this? it's not possible efficiently... first create static random @ class level... prevent non-random behaviour if run query on short period of time... (it's seeded discrete clock) static random rnd = new random(); then: var item = itemarray.values .where(t => t.item1 == shopid) .orderby(_ => rnd.next()) .firstordefault()

cgi - How do I interpret URLs without extension as files rather than missing directories in nginx? -

-
so i'm trying install zoneminder , have run under nginx, has few compiled files need run using fast-cgi. these files lack extension. if file has extension, there no issue , nginx interprets file , return 404 if can't find it. if has no extension, assume it's directory , return 404 when can't find sort of index page. here have now: # security camera domain. server { listen 888; server_name mydomain.com; root /srv/http/zm; # enable php support. include php.conf; location / { index index.html index.htm index.php; } # enable cgi support. location ~ ^/cgi-bin/(.+)$ { alias /srv/cgi-bin/zm/; fastcgi_pass unix:/run/fcgiwrap.sock; fastcgi_param script_filename $document_root/$1; include fastcgi.conf; } } the idea is, under cgi-bin directory goes through fastcgi pipe. any idea on howi can fix this? upon closer inspection, realized zoneminder has 2 cgi sc...
