RuntimeError of python occers on windows to multip

问题:

I am trying Threading and Multiprocessing for python on a windows machine.But python give the following message.

RuntimeError: 
            Attempt to start a new process before the current process
            has finished its bootstrapping phase.
            This probably means that you are on Windows and you have
            forgotten to use the proper idiom in the main module:
                if __name__ == '__main__':
                    freeze_support()
                    ...
            The "freeze_support()" line can be omitted if the program
            is not going to be frozen to produce a Windows executable.

In windows if name == 'main': it was therefore that of the must be done and I had a implemented as follows, but in, to solve After how the will happening such errors or it is a situation that I do not know. please help me.

回答1:

There is not os.fork() call on windows, so python runs your script from beginning for each new process except code that wrapped with

if __name__ == '__main__':
    ...

In your case you need to create processes Pool only in main thread, so move pool initialization into this sections (or functions that called from this section):

if __name__ == '__main__':  
    pool = multiprocessing.Pool(4)
    for var in range(0,5):
        ...
