hi !
while working on my pascal actor model concurrency framework i hit a
problem with the way tthread is currently implemented.
i need to quit all actors (threads) before closing the main
application. this is done by waitfor/free each actor until none is
left in the pool of locally running actors.
but sometimes an actor hangs, and waitfor will literally waitfor forever...
is there a way to do the equivalent of waifor but with some kind of timeout ?
thanks in advance,
J. Aldo
