[python-ldap] SyncreplConsumer running in parallel with other application

[David Gabriel]

Dears

Is there any way to enable the running of the syncrepl_poll procedure *in
parallel* with other applications (non python-ldap applications) ?
In fact I tried several manner to execute this procedure using threads and
eventlets but always my program is blocking at syncrepl_poll procedure and
it does not execute any other procedure.
In other words I want that my program be updated from any change in my ldap
db and parallely it should handle other events coming from non ldap events.
Is there any other way to do this without using syncrepl_poll procedure ?

Please any help is welcome.
I am really blocked at this point !!

Thanks in advance.
Best regards
