Here is my code:
import multiprocessing
class Worker:
def run(self, msg):
print '%s, it works!' % msg
def start_process():
print 'Starting',multiprocessing.current_process().name
if __name__=='__main__':
pool = multiprocessing.Pool(processes=2, initializer=start_process,)
pool.apply_async(Worker().run, args=('congbo',))
pool.close()
pool.join()
But I got a exception in console:
Starting PoolWorker-1
Starting PoolWorker-2
Exception in thread Thread-2:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/threading.py", line 551, in __bootstrap_inner

File "/usr/lib/python2.7/multiprocessing/pool.py", line 319, in _handle_tasks
put(task)
PicklingError: Can't pickle <type 'instancemethod'>: attribute lookup __builtin__.instancemethod failed
I just passed a class.func to the pool.apply_async(), but I got exception. And can anybody tell me how to pass the class.func to pool.apply_async(), 3x!!!
Functions that are a part of a class is not called functions, they are called methods, and you can't pass a method of an object instance to apply_async(), you need to use a function.
The reason for this is that multiprocessing
is all about doing things in multiple processes, and when you pass an instance method, you pass something that is a part of an object. And that object exists only in one of the processes, so the other processes can't access it.
Change your
class Worker:
def run(self, msg):
print '%s, it works!' % msg
to
def run(msg):
print '%s, it works!' % msg
And use that, and it should work.
