Did anyone write a contextmanager implementing a timeout for
python2.5?
I'd love to be able to write something like
with timeout(5.0) as exceeded:
some_long_running_stuff()
if exceeded:
print "Oops - took too long!"
And have it work reliably and in a cross platform way!
>From my experiments with timeouts I suspect it won't be possible to
implement it perfectly in python 2.5 - maybe we could add some extra
core infrastructure to Python 3k to make it possible?
