Edit Question
Title
Body
I have a problem with Python threading and sending a string in the arguments. def processLine(line) : print "hello"; return; . dRecieved = connFile.readline(); processThread = threading.Thread(target=processLine, args=(dRecieved)); processThread.start(); Where dRecieved is the string of one line read by a connection. It calls a simple function which as of right now has only one job of printing "hello". However I get the following error Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Python25\lib\threading.py", line 486, in __bootstrap_inner self.run() File "C:\Python25\lib\threading.py", line 446, in run self.__target(*self.__args, **self.__kwargs) TypeError: processLine() takes exactly 1 arguments (232 given) 232 is the length of the string that I am trying to pass, so I guess its breaking it up into each character and trying to pass the arguments like that. It works fine if I just call the function normally but I would really like to set it up as a separate thread.
