Processing package reference

The processing package mostly replicates the API of the threading module.

The package exports one class:

class Process(group=None, target=None, name=None, args=(), kwargs={})

An analogue of threading.Thread.

See Process objects.

The package also exports the following functions:

currentProcess()
Return the object corresponding to the current process.
Manager()

Return a SyncManager object which can be used to create objects which can be shared between processes. The returned manager object has instance methods which create shared objects and return corresponding proxies.

See Manager objects and Proxy objects.
