interrupt the after method?

Hi,

I got something like

after(2000, myMethod)

Is there any way, to stop the after method from calling myMethod?
My problem is, that myMethod might be called directly (within 2000 ms)
in which case I don't want it to be called again through the after method.

Thanks in advance

Problem solved. after_cancel(id ) was what I've been looking for.

As far as I know python's threading module models after Java's. However, I can't find something equivalent to Java's interrupt and isInterrupted methods, along with InterruptedException. "somethread.interrupt()" will wake somethread up when it's in sleeping/waiting state. Is there any way of doing this with python's thread? I suppose thread interrupt is a very primitive functionality for stopping a blocked thread.

Hi all, I need to write a ISR using Microsoft VC++ 2005. The proplem is I did not found any hint on how to do it. I can register any function as a ISR and it will be called by the hardware interrupt, interrupt 8 (timer) i.e., works fine in my little example progam. But the problem is the compiler ends every function with RETN, after disassembling the result of the compilation this can be seen easiely. Every function starts and ends with:

I'm using VS2005 Winforms. I want a method to allow the user to be able to interrupt an SQL query if he decides he doesn't want to wait for it any longer. I've used IAsyncResult to open an async connection that runs an ExecuteNonQuery, but this method doesn't allow interruption (EndExecuteNonQuery gets blocked until the execute finishes), and ideally I'd like to interrupt a Query rather than a NonQuery. It seems to me this is a...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.
