Passing data between threads

Hi all,

I have a script where I create a thread using the thread module. The
thread runs its course and then calls thread.exit ().

However, I'd like to pass some data back to the parent thread before alling
thread.exit () but I can't figure out how.

Any ideas?

Erik

take a look at the Queue class (e.g. calling thread provides queue as
parameter):
http://docs.python.org/lib/module-Queue.html

oh you are using the "old thread" module. Try to switch to
the threading module if you are not on a very
old python version ( in this case the module Queue is not available)
