[Twisted-Python] xmlrpc deferred

[Catalin Constantin]

Hi there,

I have the following xmlrpc method:

class FeederResource(xmlrpc.XMLRPC):
        def __init__(self):
                xmlrpc.XMLRPC.__init__(self)
                self.feeder=Feeder()
                
        def xmlrpc_getList(self, id):
                return self.feeder.get_urls(id)

The thing is that the self.feeder.get_urls takes too long to execute
and while the request is running all the others are blocked.
I want that while it computes the result the other XML RPC methods to
be available.

I wanted to use deferrals but i found no viable example.

Eg what i've tried to do:
        def xmlrpc_getList(self, id):
                log.debug("getList is here for id %s" % id)
                d = defer.Deferred()
                d.addCallback(self.feeder.get_urls)
                return d


My method feeder.get_urls is never called !

Where do i do wrong !

10x for your help !
