Just put it in a Queue and wait on it in the thread. Standard Python.
It seems cleaner to me for a worker thread to say: result = blockingCallFromThread(func, arg1, arg2, ...) Than: q = Queue.Queue() reactor.callFromThread(func, q, arg1, arg2) result = q.get() Especially seeing as the latter requires cluttering 'func' with details of how to get the result back (i.e. a call to q.put), when the solution I proposed in my previous email would make it transparent. -Andrew.
