Assertion 'tvp' failed #6

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
I got the following error while using adns:

python2.5: ../src/event.c:708: adns_wait: Assertion `tvp' failed.

My script dies right after the error. My python code is

DNS = adns.init()
status, _cname, expires, answer = DNS.synchronous(netloc, adns.rr.CNAME)

The code is running inside different threads. I am using adns-1.2 and
adns-python-1.2.1 on Ubuntu Dapper with a custom-built python2.5.

Are you using the same DNS object in different threads? Since you are using a
synchronous lookup, this is probably a bad idea. I don't know if the adns 
library is
thread-safe or not. I would tend to suspect it isn't because it's designed for
asynchronous operation which tends to be single-threaded.

I would recommend using separate DNS objects per thread if you are doing 
synchronous
lookups, as synchronous lookups will block until the answer is returned.

Thank you, I suspected as much. I will change my code and check if the error 
persists.

I localized the dns client for each thread, and everything seems to work. 
Classic
newbie mistake, thanks for pointing it out. :)
