Is there a Groovy equivalent of the Ruby Timeout module?

Question

In Ruby I would use the Timeout module, where it executes a block and will stop executing the code if it passes the timeout.

require \'timeout\'
status = Tim         


        

Answer 1

There is the TimedInterrupt annotation, but I've not tried it out yet...

Gave it a quick test, and this (poor example):

@groovy.transform.TimedInterrupt( 5L )
def loopy() {
  int i = 0
  try {
    while( true ) {
      i++
    }
  }
  catch( e ) {
    i
  }
}

println loopy()

Runs in the groovy console and prints out i after 5 seconds.

I get:
