The initializer TimerService will return a TimerService object, which has the .startService() and .stopService(). So, bind the object returned by TimerService to some name and call methods on that to start/stop the service. On Mon, 20 Dec 2004 14:30:07 -0800, Don Smith <donwsmith@gmail.com> wrote:

Greetings!

I'm fairly new to Twisted, but I like it already. However, I'm having some difficulty with the filewatch.py example.

Actually, I extended it to loop over a list of files and start service for each. The log files in the list are actually commands to determine the most recent log file.

But I have a condition where the log files will get rotated unexpectedly. I would like to re-evaluate my list of log files every 120 seconds. I have figured out a method to accomplish this, but it just adds the new log files to the service. This is bad. I want to stop service on all log files, then start service on the new ones. This is what I can't figure out how to do. How do I stop the service?

This is how I start it: if os.path.exists(logfile): internet.TimerService(0.1, watch2, file(logfile),logfile).startService()

Thanks for you help!!
