Fwd: Timeout function for Thread.Queue->read

Hello Marc

I have tried that already, I have to keep a while loop something like
while(result->try_read()){ .... } . This runs for like 50-60 times before
it provides a non zero value. I think that's very inefficient. And this
read statement runs for like 200 iterations. Every iteration running 50-60
times. That will result in a lot of delay for my result.

Please give me a example if you can avoid this kind of problem.
