asyncore

Im currently trying to learn Networking with Python asyncore and pyqt4. I coded a small server, which basically listens on some port, and resends all messages it recieves to the sender. Since both qts QApplication.exec_() and asyncore.loop() are functions which never return i could not start them both in one thread, so i stared asyncore.loop() in a seperate daemon thread. Whenever my server class (derived from asyncore.dispatcher ) establishes or drops a connection, or sends/recieves a message, it calls methods of my window class (derived from QtGui.QMainWindow ), which displays the

I have a need for a callback kind of functionality in Python where I am sending a request to a webservice multiple times, with a change in the parameter each time. I want these requests to happen concurrently instead of sequentially, so I want the function to be called asynchronously. It looks like asyncore is what I might want to use, but the examples I've seen of how it works all look like overkill, so I'm wondering if there's another path I should be going down. Any suggestions on modules/process? Ideally I'd like to use these in a procedural fashion instead of creating classes but I may

I have a program I'm working on that will be reading from two 'network sources' simultaneously. I wanted to try out an asynchronous approach rather than use threading. This has lead me to wonder which library to use... I've come up with some simple example code that kind of demonstrates what my program will be doing: import sniffer def first(): for station in sniffer.sniff_wifi(): log(station.mac()) def second(): for station in sniffer.sniff_ethernet(): log(station.mac()) first() second() The two sniffer methods look somewhat like this: def sniff_wifi(self): while True: yield mac_address The
