Hi.

Do you mean that it is a problem to use a MainThread?
I post a patch that do not use a MainThread.

Please check it.


Thank you!

Comment:

This is a duplicate of a know bug: #176

The problem is not that the thread is not dispatched. It is actually
dispatched. But the dispatched thread is not the one that does the
operation, it's a thread that sleep for whatever was passed to timeout, and then sends "cancel" to the main thread. However, with the way MacRuby implements threads (with pthread), it's not possible to cancel the main
thread without breaking everything :D.

We're working on it, and waiting to find a solution.
