Hello.
I am going to write python script which will read python command from
socket, run it and return some values back to socket.
My problem is, that I need some timeout. I need to say for example:
os.system("someapplication.exe")
and kill it, if it waits longer than let's say 100 seconds
I want to call command on separate thread, then after given timeout -
kill thread, but I realized (after reading Usenet archive) that there is
no way to kill a thread in Python.
How can I implement my script then?
PS. it should be portable - Linux, Windows, QNX, etc
