下面的函数foo返回一个字符串'foo'。我如何才能获得从线程的目标返回的值'foo' ?
from threading import Thread
def foo(bar):
print('hello {}'.format(bar))
return 'foo'
thread = Thread(target=foo, args=('world!',))
thread.start()
return_value = thread.join()
上面所示的“一种明显的方法”不起作用:thread.join()返回None。
当前回答
join总是返回None，我认为你应该子类化Thread来处理返回代码等。
其他回答
使用队列:
import threading, queue
def calc_square(num, out_queue1):
l = []
for x in num:
l.append(x*x)
out_queue1.put(l)
arr = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]
out_queue1=queue.Queue()
t1=threading.Thread(target=calc_square, args=(arr,out_queue1))
t1.start()
t1.join()
print (out_queue1.get())
最好的方法…定义一个全局变量，然后在线程函数中更改该变量。没有可以传递或取回的东西
from threading import Thread
# global var
radom_global_var = 5
def function():
global random_global_var
random_global_var += 1
domath = Thread(target=function)
domath.start()
domath.join()
print(random_global_var)
# result: 6
join总是返回None，我认为你应该子类化Thread来处理返回代码等。
我见过的一种方法是将一个可变对象(如列表或字典)传递给线程的构造函数，同时传递一个索引或其他某种类型的标识符。然后线程可以将结果存储在该对象的专用槽中。例如:
def foo(bar, result, index):
print 'hello {0}'.format(bar)
result[index] = "foo"
from threading import Thread
threads = [None] * 10
results = [None] * 10
for i in range(len(threads)):
threads[i] = Thread(target=foo, args=('world!', results, i))
threads[i].start()
# do some other stuff
for i in range(len(threads)):
threads[i].join()
print " ".join(results) # what sound does a metasyntactic locomotive make?
如果你真的想要join()返回被调用函数的返回值，你可以用Thread子类来实现，如下所示:
from threading import Thread
def foo(bar):
print 'hello {0}'.format(bar)
return "foo"
class ThreadWithReturnValue(Thread):
def __init__(self, group=None, target=None, name=None,
args=(), kwargs={}, Verbose=None):
Thread.__init__(self, group, target, name, args, kwargs, Verbose)
self._return = None
def run(self):
if self._Thread__target is not None:
self._return = self._Thread__target(*self._Thread__args,
**self._Thread__kwargs)
def join(self):
Thread.join(self)
return self._return
twrv = ThreadWithReturnValue(target=foo, args=('world!',))
twrv.start()
print twrv.join() # prints foo
这有点麻烦，因为一些名称混乱，它访问特定于线程实现的“私有”数据结构……但它确实有效。
对于Python 3:
class ThreadWithReturnValue(Thread):
def __init__(self, group=None, target=None, name=None,
args=(), kwargs={}, Verbose=None):
Thread.__init__(self, group, target, name, args, kwargs)
self._return = None
def run(self):
if self._target is not None:
self._return = self._target(*self._args,
**self._kwargs)
def join(self, *args):
Thread.join(self, *args)
return self._return
如上所述，多处理池比基本线程要慢得多。使用一些回答中提出的队列是一种非常有效的替代方法。我已经将它与字典一起使用，以便能够运行许多小线程，并通过将它们与字典结合来恢复多个答案:
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import threading
# use Queue for python2
import queue
import random
LETTERS = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'
LETTERS = [ x for x in LETTERS ]
NUMBERS = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
def randoms(k, q):
result = dict()
result['letter'] = random.choice(LETTERS)
result['number'] = random.choice(NUMBERS)
q.put({k: result})
threads = list()
q = queue.Queue()
results = dict()
for name in ('alpha', 'oscar', 'yankee',):
threads.append( threading.Thread(target=randoms, args=(name, q)) )
threads[-1].start()
_ = [ t.join() for t in threads ]
while not q.empty():
results.update(q.get())
print(results)
