Pynrfjprog create dummy thread, how to avoid/delete them ?

[AntoineB]

Hi,

I'm devlopping python (v3.9.6) software to flash nRF52832 using pynrfjprog (v10.17.3) package.

The soft is a loop trying to erase and flash. But while debugging with VSCode, I see that pynrfjprog package  create "Dummy-X" threads and never release/kill them.

The point is, if the software run for a long time, more than 2000 thread can be running at the same time and take lot of ressources on the computer.

My question is, is there a way to erase/flash without creating this Dummy thread ? Or is there a way to delete them once the erase/flash action is over ?

Thanks in advance,

Antoine

Hi again

We are not able to reproduce your issue with the low level API on our end.

Your "dummy threads" are probably C++ threads that aren't terminated properly, and are likely caused by how you use your class.

Hi Einarh,

Thank for your reply. I will try to perform others tests then.
For now I call .exe with pynrfjprog HighLevel in order to avoid created and never release threads.

Best regards,

Antoine
