This version # provides both Timeout.timeout, and a backwards-compatible #timeout. # # = Synopsis # # require 'timeout' # status = Timeout::timeout(5) { # # Something that should be interrupted if it takes too much time... # } # module Timeout ## # Raised by Timeout#timeout when the block times out. class Error < Interrupt end class ExitException < ::Exception # :nodoc: end THIS_FILE = /\A#{Regexp.quote(__FILE__)}:/o CALLER_OFFSET = ((c = caller[0]) && THIS_FILE =~ c) ? 1 : 0 ## # Executes the method's block. If the block execution terminates before +sec+ # seconds has passed, it returns true. If not, it terminates the execution # and raises +exception+ (which defaults to Timeout::Error). # # Note that this is both a method of module Timeout, so you can 'include # Timeout' into your classes so they have a #timeout method, as well as a # module method, so you can call it directly as Timeout.timeout(). def timeout(sec, klass = nil) return yield if sec == nil or sec.zero? raise ThreadError, "timeout within critical session" if Thread.critical exception = klass || Class.new(ExitException) begin x = Thread.current y = Thread.start { sleep sec x.raise exception, "execution expired" if x.alive? } yield sec # return true rescue exception => e rej = /\A#{Regexp.quote(__FILE__)}:#{__LINE__-4}\z/o (bt = e.backtrace).reject! {|m| rej =~ m} level = -caller(CALLER_OFFSET).size while THIS_FILE =~ bt[level] bt.delete_at(level) level += 1 end raise if klass # if exception class is specified, it # would be expected outside. raise Error, e.message, e.backtrace ensure y.kill if y and y.alive? end end module_function :timeout end ## # Identical to: # # Timeout::timeout(n, e, &block). # # Defined for backwards compatibility with earlier versions of timeout.rb, see # Timeout#timeout. def timeout(n, e = nil, &block) # :nodoc: Timeout::timeout(n, e, &block) end ## # Another name for Timeout::Error, defined for backwards compatibility with # earlier versions of timeout.rb.
