Hello,

I hear that Win32 cann't use "alarm" for a timeout.
The sample code in Camel book or Cookbook is not valid
on Win32. Is this true even now?

I must execute some external command by @rc = `SOME.exe`,
which may hung sometimes.
These are SQLPLUS and FTP and any with -B(atch) option.
Sometimes I can do by DBI and Net::FTP and... but sometimes
I don't have a work-around.

Any idea?

Regards,
Hirosi Taguti
