是否有可能终止一个正在运行的线程而不设置/检查任何标志/信号/等等?


当前回答

使用setDaemon(True)启动子线程。

def bootstrap(_filename):
    mb = ModelBootstrap(filename=_filename) # Has many Daemon threads. All get stopped automatically when main thread is stopped.

t = threading.Thread(target=bootstrap,args=('models.conf',))
t.setDaemon(False)

while True:
    t.start()
    time.sleep(10) # I am just allowing the sub-thread to run for 10 sec. You can listen on an event to stop execution.
    print('Thread stopped')
    break

如果不杀死线程会更好。 一种方法是在线程的循环中引入一个“try”块,并在想要停止线程时抛出一个异常(例如break/return/…)这会让你停下来/一会儿/…)。 我在我的应用程序上使用了这个,它是有效的…

这似乎与windows 7上的pywin32一起工作

my_thread = threading.Thread()
my_thread.start()
my_thread._Thread__stop()

可以通过在将退出线程的线程中安装trace来终止线程。请参阅所附的链接,了解一种可能的实现。

在Python中杀死一个线程

如果您试图终止整个程序,您可以将线程设置为“守护进程”。看到 Thread.daemon

虽然它相当古老,但对一些人来说这可能是一个方便的解决方案:

一个扩展线程模块功能的小模块—— 允许一个线程在另一个线程的上下文中引发异常 线程。通过触发SystemExit,你最终可以杀死python线程。

import threading
import ctypes     

def _async_raise(tid, excobj):
    res = ctypes.pythonapi.PyThreadState_SetAsyncExc(tid, ctypes.py_object(excobj))
    if res == 0:
        raise ValueError("nonexistent thread id")
    elif res > 1:
        # """if it returns a number greater than one, you're in trouble, 
        # and you should call it again with exc=NULL to revert the effect"""
        ctypes.pythonapi.PyThreadState_SetAsyncExc(tid, 0)
        raise SystemError("PyThreadState_SetAsyncExc failed")

class Thread(threading.Thread):
    def raise_exc(self, excobj):
        assert self.isAlive(), "thread must be started"
        for tid, tobj in threading._active.items():
            if tobj is self:
                _async_raise(tid, excobj)
                return

        # the thread was alive when we entered the loop, but was not found 
        # in the dict, hence it must have been already terminated. should we raise
        # an exception here? silently ignore?

    def terminate(self):
        # must raise the SystemExit type, instead of a SystemExit() instance
        # due to a bug in PyThreadState_SetAsyncExc
        self.raise_exc(SystemExit)

因此,它允许“线程在另一个线程的上下文中引发异常”,通过这种方式,被终止的线程可以处理终止,而无需定期检查中止标志。

然而,根据其原始来源,这段代码有一些问题。

The exception will be raised only when executing python bytecode. If your thread calls a native/built-in blocking function, the exception will be raised only when execution returns to the python code. There is also an issue if the built-in function internally calls PyErr_Clear(), which would effectively cancel your pending exception. You can try to raise it again. Only exception types can be raised safely. Exception instances are likely to cause unexpected behavior, and are thus restricted. For example: t1.raise_exc(TypeError) and not t1.raise_exc(TypeError("blah")). IMHO it's a bug, and I reported it as one. For more info, http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2006-August/068158.html I asked to expose this function in the built-in thread module, but since ctypes has become a standard library (as of 2.5), and this feature is not likely to be implementation-agnostic, it may be kept unexposed.
