To implement a custom subclass and process, we must:
Once you have created the new Process subclass, you can create an instance of it and then start by invoking the start() method, which will in turn call the run() method.
We will rewrite the first example in this manner:
#Using a process in a subclass Chapter 3: Process Based #Parallelism
import multiprocessing
class MyProcess(multiprocessing.Process):
def run(self):
print ('called run method in process: %s' %self.name)
return
if __name__ == '__main__':
jobs = []
for i in range(5):
p = MyProcess ()
jobs.append(p)
p.start()
p.join()To run the script from the Command Prompt, type the following command:
python subclass_process.py
The result...
