Tim Golden added the comment: Just to be clear: the change *I'm* proposing for this issue has nothing to do with limiting the wait, artificially or otherwise. It's simply undoing an unintended conversion from unsigned to signed and back again, whicih currently causes any wait of more than 2147 seconds to hang pretty much indefinitely.
It looks to me as though Kristjan's "4000" is off by an order of magnitude: the parameter to WaitFor... is a DWORD number of milliseconds. That allows for 2**31 -1 milliseconds which is something short of 50 days, I believe. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20737> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
