asterisk users - Feb 2014 - pyAsterisk: how to gracefully exit from event loop

Hello,

I'm using py-Asterisk 0.5.3.
I'm trying to use it along a Tkinter-based GUI so I've dedicated a
thread
for reading incoming AMI events.

Which is the preferred way to gracefully exit from an event loop ?
More precisely:


This thread is waiting for input events with Manager._read_packet() method.
Doc (see [1]) says:
"... infinite loop running BaseManager.read() until an exception occurs
(for example, SystemExit is raised) or until sys.exit() is called"


The best method I could find is to close Manager connection and catch
exception.

Any advice ?

Regards
