<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:11.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I am new to this group, but I'm hoping someone could offer
some advice as to a complicated issue I am having.<br>
<br>
I have created a (multithreaded) Python application that performs asynchronous
queries. Unfortunately, I'm having a very difficult time setting it up as a
service.<br>
<br>
It should run as follows:<br>
<br>
1) A remote server starts the service<br>
2) while the service is running, it performs its asynchronous
lookups--something like:<br>
<br>
while 1:<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='text-indent:.5in'><font size=2 face=Arial><span
style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>ASYNCH_QUERY()<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='text-indent:.5in'><font size=2 face=Arial><span
style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>time.sleep(30)<br>
else:<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='text-indent:.5in'><font size=2 face=Arial><span
style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Arial'>sys.exit()<br>
<br>
I have taken a look at the pipeTestServiceClient.py and pipeTestService.py
examples from win32all build 209, but I couldn't figure out how to adapt it to
my own code, since nothing needs to be echoed back to the "invoking"
server. Does anyone have any ideas?<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanking you in advance,<br>
<br>
