I am running a shell command from within my python script using
os.system(“some shell command”)
This command essentially terminates a tool.
I need to check that this tool is terminated in my script.
But as soon as the tool is terminated the script is terminated too!
Is the script, by any chance, launched by that same tool? If yes, you need to run os.setsid() to stop being dependent on it.
