Thanks for the code Raymond. However, what I use is actually simpler:

def iterate(queue, block=False): '''Iterate over the items in the queue.''' while True: try: yield queue.get(block=block) except Queue.Empty: raise StopIteration

Then it sounds like the existing API is more than adequate for your needs. Dump the above fragment in your utils module and be done with it. Raymond
