update python variable in each child?

[SDQL]

Hi,

Is it possible to update python data in each child process?

Let's say I have a python list of cities

cities = ['Atlanta','Boston',...]

and I want to allow web clients to append this list.

I can easily do this in one process: is it possible to do this in each
of the child processes?

Thanks,

Joe

In theory, if one parent process spawns all the children, it could use facilities in the multiprocessing module to share data among them:

However, I'd strongly recommend using a database to store shared data.
