[Tutor] how to stop a thread

[shawn bright]

hello there all,

i have a python reference book that got me started knowing how to use
threads, i can declare one as a class, and start it like this

class SomeThread(threading.Thread):


run_process = SomeThread()
run_process.start()

but how do i kill it ? This part is not in my book. Basically the thread
works, and runs in a while loop. Is there a way to destroy the instance of
it after creation ?

thanks all

shawn
