[omniORB] threading module change in Python 2.6

[Luke Deller]

Hi,

In Python 2.6 the "__started" attribute of threading.Thread instances has been changed from a Boolean to a threading.Event instance.

http://svn.python.org/view/python/branches/release26-maint/Lib/threading.py?view=diff&r1=61099&r2=61100

The omniORBpy WorkerThread class needs to be updated accordingly. See attached for a proposed patch.

Regards,
Luke.

Thanks. I've applied your patch. It's really annoying that omniORBpy has
to know things about the internal threading implementation, Maybe I
should propose an API in the threading module so it can avoid these
things...

Cheers,

Duncan.
