<br>
I am using a multiprocessing program, where the new process is supposed to change a variable in the main class that it branches out from. This is somehow not working, following is an approximate code. Would really appreciate any insight into this matter:<br>
<br>
<br>
var = {}<br>
<br>
class Something():<br>
<br>
def set_var(self):<br>
global var<br>
var = somevalue<br>
<br>
def get_var(self):<br>
return var<br>
<br>
def newprocess(self):<br>
self.set_var()<br>
<br>
def do_multiprocessing(self):<br>
while true:<br>
self.get_var()<br>
new_process = process(target=newprocess)<br>
new_process.start()<br>
<br>
<br>
I am really confused here !<br>
<br>
Any help would be awesome : )<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Nav<br>
