passing argumetns to threading.Thread

[sashan]

I'm trying to pass arguments to my the run method of my class that
inherits from threading.Threa d.

class Reader(threadin g.Thread):
def __init__(self, conn):
threading.Threa d.__init__(self , None, None, None, (conn))

def run(self,conn):
while 1:
data = conn.recv(1024)
print data

woops left out some stuff...

later in the program:

t = Reader(conn)
t.start()

sorry ... i keep hitting the wrong shortcut key combom when sending
these messages resulting in truncations

Anyway after t.start() I get an error message basically saying:
TypeError: 2 arguments expected for Reader.run (1 given)

How do I resolve this?

You can't pass run() arguments.

You can, however, use instance variables since Reader is an object:

class Reader(threadin g.Thread):
def __init__(self, conn):
threading.Threa d.__init__(self ) # no need for extra args
self.conn = conn

def run(self):
while 1:
data = self.conn.recv( 1024)
print data
