Hi:
I have Python program running under Linux, that create several
threads, and I want to now the corresponding PID of the threads.
In each of the threads I have
def run(self):
pid = os.getpid()
logger.critical('process ID: %s', pid)
However, the reported PID is the father number, not the PID of the new
thread. Is there a way to get the PID of the thread?
To illustrate this further, this is the output of pstree when the PID
of the main Python thread is 9197:
$pstree -p 9197
python(9197)─┬─{python}(9555)
├─{python}(9556)
├─{python}(9557)
├─{python}(9558)
├─{python}(9559)
├─{python}(9560)
├─{python}(9561)
├─{python}(9562)
├─{python}(9563)
└─{python}(9564
I want each thread to report its PID number, in this case 9555, 9556,
etc., but with os.getpid() is get 9197.
Regards,
Alejandro.
