Hi all, I would like to set a short connection timeout (only some seconds) when using libvirt in my Python program instead of the long default one. I found the C function: virEventAddTimeoutFunc() in the C libvirt API here: http://libvirt.org/html/libvirt-libvirt.html#virEventAddTimeoutFunc and eventInvokeTimeoutCallback(timer, callback, opaque) in libvirt.py around the line#150 but I do not know how to use it. I did not find any example on the net. I tried this but I get a segmentation fault: :-( import libvirt def timeout_cb_d(): print 'Timeout !' try: # try to set the libvirt timeout to 2 seconds: t = libvirt.eventInvokeTimeoutCallback(2, timeout_cb_d, "from dom0_class") except: ... Does anyone can give me a working example please? Antoine Coetsier
