If you do not want to use threading, I think you can use (I didn't test this though): lib.start(with_thread=False); while True: time.sleep(0.01); lib.handle_events(); (see the http://www.pjsip.org/python/pjsua.htm for help on lib.start() and lib.handle_events()) If you want to use threading, there are many ways in which you can communicate from the callback to the main thread that the main thread should exit the main application loop and shut down the application. > but when running I get something immediately bombing > because a lib instance is found as NoneType (which has no destroy(), > and thus an AttributeError exception is thrown).

From you description of the error you got I gather you have an error in your Python code; please send your code (i.e. a minimal stand-alone Python script demonstrating the problem) and the output of the program as you ran it if you want someone to look at it!
