infinite-loop

If I embed the Python interpreter in a C or C++ program, as in this example , is there any way to limit how long the interpreter runs for? Is there anything to stop the Python code from entering an infinite loop and thus preventing PyObject_CallObject (or equivalent) from ever returning? Similarly, if the Python code creates a new thread, is there anything to stop this thread from entering an infinite loop and running forever? Peter Brittain As you can see in the docs , PyObject_CallObject has no mechanism for limiting how long the function runs. There is also no Python C API function that I

I have a Facebook app which loops forever when run in IE. In other browsers it works fine. I need your help to debug this, but before that I need to mention how I have implemented it. FB recommends that when user tries to access the app we should redirect the user to the app authorization page. From there FB will redirect (using 302 code) to an url which we like. In this case I ask FB to redirect to my app's url with a flag appLogin=1 in query string. But along with that FB attaches a really long param code in the query string which is quite ugly. So, in this case I put a flag LoggedIn in my

I want to build a headless application which will query the DB in infinite loop and perform some operations in certain conditions (e.g. fetch records with specific values and when found launch e-mail sending procedure for each message). I want to use Spring Boot as a base (especially because of Actuator to allow expose health-checks), but for now I used Spring Boot for building REST web-services. Is there any best practices or patterns to follow when building infinite loop applications ? Does anyone tried to build it based on Spring Boot and can share with me his architecture for this case ?

There are several postings concerning switch statements within while loops, except for the fact that none of them are done in C, at least from what I've seen. C++ can create boolean expressions, which I'm aware of, but not in C. I have a while loop that contains a switch control. However, when I write break statements within my switch, it goes back to the beginning of the loop and makes my program run forever. Ignore the functions I use, for they work for sure. I just need some clarification on my handling of the nesting. Thanks! Here is my main.c: while(1) { printf("0) Exit\n1) List Tasks\n2)

This question already has answers here : Infinite loop with cin when typing string while a number is expected (4 answers) I'm learning C++ and writing little programs as I go along. The following is one such program: // This program is intended to take any integer and convert to the // corresponding signed char. #include <iostream> int main() { signed char sch = 0; int n = 0; while(true){ std::cin >> n; sch = n; std::cout << n << " --> " << sch << std::endl; } } When I run this program and keep inputs at reasonably small absolute values, it behaves as expected. But when I enter larger inputs,

I have a ruby script below which infinitely prints numbers from 1 onward. How can I make the script stop its infinite execution through an interrupt in the terminal like 'Ctrl+C' or key 'q'? a = 0 while( a ) puts a a += 1 # the code should quit if an interrupt of a character is given end Through every iteration, no user input should be asked. I think you will have to check the exit condition in a separate thread: # check for exit condition Thread.new do loop do exit if gets.chomp == 'q' end end a = 0 loop do a += 1 puts a sleep 1 end BTW, you will have to enter q<Enter> to exit, as that's how
