# A way of performing a potentially long-running operation in a thread, and terminating
|
||
# it's execution if it hasn't finished by a fixed amount of time.
|
||
# Timeout provides a way to auto-terminate a potentially long-running
|
||
# operation if it hasn't finished in a fixed amount of time.
|
||
#
|
||
# Previous versions of timeout didn't provide use a module for namespace. This version
|
||
# provides both Timeout.timeout, and a backwards-compatible #timeout.
|
||
# Previous versions didn't use a module for namespacing, however
|
||
# #timeout is provided for backwards compatibility. You
|
||
# should prefer Timeout#timeout instead.
