How can I make a socket connect as a background process in a function .

Question

I tried
def connect (address):
Socket_name.connect (address)

But it disconnects once the function is done completely .

Answer 1

Hi.
I am not very clear on sockets in python but I am pretty sure it is due to the scope that your codes exits when returning from the "def connect(address):" function.
Try handing over the socket you want to connect too (but that would look weird) or define the socket globally

Actually you have a point. I will try multithreading along with it.
