gtk - Run a function every X minutes - Python -

-

I am using Python and PGTK I am interested in running a certain function, which receives data from serial port And it saves it every few minutes.

Currently, I am using the sleep () function in the time library. To be able to process, I have the installation of my system: 

  import time time = 300 # 5 minutes while (1): time 1 = time.time () reader ( ) # Read data from serial port processing () # Accessories with serial data, in which time to dump the file 2 = time.time Time () Processing time = time 2 - time 1 truth = weighty - processing time. Sleep (salvage)

This setup allows me to interrupt the 5-minute reading of data from the serial port. My problem is that I want to stop my readerial () function which is running every 5 minutes and wants to be able to work all the time instead of using time. Sleep () function.

Any suggestions on how to solve this problem? Multiple threading? Comes in between? Please keep in mind that I am using Python.

Thank you.

Do not use such loops with two sleep, this is the gtk timer eg. 

  will prevent gtk from processing any UI event instead of using def my_timer (* args). Long gtk.timeout_add (60 * 1000, my_timer) # call every minute

After selecting the copies of the buffer in Linux, after the text, we can click and paste the button between the mouse. I think there is a special buffer for this, I want to use it. Programming Language: C ++ Your Library: Qt Thanks. There is just one more correct answer than Paul Dixon, which answers your needs: / P > QClipboard * clipboard = QApplication :: clipboard (); CastString Selected Text = Clipboard-> Text (QClipboard :: Selection);

Visual Studio 2005: How to speed up builds when a VSMDI is open? -

-
Using Visual Studio 2005, if I open the test in VSMFI and try to run the tests, then sometimes the projects are ready. However, they run very slow. CPU 99% waste and output window VS Shows things associated with compiling it. Is there any way to fix this? It does not make any sense. It is not necessary to upgrade that we are a viable alternative to those people who have to deal with the legacy code. Did you try to upgrade SP1? I do not know of any specific problem in this area, but this will be the first change I tried to do.

booting ubuntu from usb using virtualbox -

I am trying to install Ubuntu on a USB, the problem is that I do not want to repeat the boot once, I want to keep my windows, but I want to boot Ubuntu using the virtualbox and USB to the Ubuntu Want to use my hard drive, but how? The virtualbox will not recognize USB as a hard drive when installing an ISO In virtualbox, you have to create a virtual hard disk. Make a USB drive and tell the virtual box to install a virtual hard drive that you just created. EDIT: To answer some more questions: In the new Virtual Disk dialog, click the button next to the location field, click on the button Virtual Disk on Flash Drive To access, click the arrow next to Save in the Select File in the window next to Save In, and you can access your flash drive from there. I recommend setting the image to be allocated dynamically, because the size of your flash drive is not available disk space. I name the image, then select that image to install Ubuntu in the Verbill box. The virtualbox will never...
