Subject: Request/suggestion: add '$a->get($url)' timeout option
Date: Tue, 16 Sep 2008 08:39:33 +0300
To: <bug-WWW-Mechanize [...] rt.cpan.org.>
From: "Siiskonen, Pekka" <pekka.siiskonen [...] mikrolog.fi>
Add to wish list: How about adding a timeout limit option to '$a->get($url)'? Or should I fork another process and do timing there and kill the get($url) process if it is taking too much time... Would that be successfull on Windows platform... No -- I'm not an perl expert, just trying hard to become one. Pekka Siiskonen Kaivomestarinkatu 5 D 48 FI-02770 ESPOO FINLAND
LWP already handles this. Also, http://code.google.com/p/www-mechanize/issues/list is where you should be submitting tickets.
