twisted - locking threads when deferToThread is used

Hi,
I'm writing an application which will be periodically testing servers.
I will have a global list of these servers(domain names) and need to do
few tasks.
1) DNS checks - I will use asynchronous twisted-names for it
- in case there is a difference comparing to the list it should update
the list(then also in DB)
2) ICMP pings - should be also possible to do it asynchronously
3) Blocking function which will be pinging with SIP requests
- here I will use function deferToThread to make it non-blocking.

Questions:
1) How do I lock each thread when writing to a global list in twisted?
2) How will I put together all three results mentioned above in the
global list
- is it by using function callLater ?
3) Could you help me with a rough skeleton of this application, please?

Thank you,
Lada

Hi, I have a simple client-server app, that sits on a serial port and communicates through that with an attached microcontroller-board. To the outside, it exposes two sockets (file or inet) which can be connected by clients to perform certain tasks like uploading programs, giving me a console and resetting the board. So far, I've used threads - every incoming connection generates one that will listen to the client socket using...

Hello, I am writing an application using two event-driven libraries: wxPython, and twisted. The first problem I encountered in the program is the confliction between the two all-consuming methods of the two libraries: app.MainLoop, and reactor.run. Additionally, the fact that wxPython was to receive requests from the twisted framework as well as the end user seemed to be simply asking for trouble. My initial solution was, naturally,...

I'm building an application that makes several user-specified internet connections; twisted meets my needs more or less perfectly. I'm running into a problem, however, in that twisted is not allowing connections (reactor.connectTCP) by hostname, only IP address. From what I can tell, the problem lies in that Twisted simply isn't performing the DNS resolutions. From the connection factory's startedConnecting method, print...

I am creating a class that has a method "Write" that I wish to make threadsafe. The method must block calling threads until the task performed in write is complete. Only 1 thread at a time can perform the task within "Write". 1-10 different threads may call "Write" simultaneously and continuously, some in a greedy manner. That is to say that some of the threads calling "Write" will take all they can get, while other threads may only call...

Hi First off I'm not using anything from Twisted. I just liked the subject line :) The folks of this list have been most helpful before and I'm hoping that you'll take pity on a the dazed and confused.

Hi, I have a MDIChild with static properties that can be updated at any time by the MDIParent. These properties may also at unknown times be accessed by one or more worker threads. Now, I'm not too familiar with threads, but is there a danger that these properties can get corrupted? MDIParent will only SET the properties while the worker threads will only GET them. If so how do you lock them and to

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention.
