swat.CAS.fork

CAS.fork(num=2)

Create multiple copies of a connection

The copies of the connection will use the same parameters as self, but each will create a new session.

Parameters:

num : int, optional

Number of returned connections. The first element of the returned list is always the object that the fork method was called on.

Returns:

list of CAS objects

copy()

Notes

The first element in the returned list is the same object that the method was called on. You only get num-1 copies.

Examples

The code below demonstrates how to get four unique connections.

>>> conn = swat.CAS()
>>> c1, c2, c3, c4 = conn.fork(4)
>>> c1 is conn
True
>>> c2 is conn
False
