Greetings, You can still have those, but I think I get your meaning.
A Timeout in a Step says - If none of the above Rules have been true for the
interval then the Timeout Rule shall be true.
An Always rule is Always true - therefore having a timeout in such a step is
-well it doesn't make any sense because there is nothing that could ever
timeout.
Now a good point you are making is if a chunk of code is executed by an Always
, and if there is something inside that chunk of code that could hang (an
Activate "caption",True for example), there you would need to implement a way
to get out of said code:
Here's an example - this would be the verbatim code within a Rules action:
On error Goto Errh
Timeout=20
Activate "caption",True
....
Step="Where should I go next"
Exit Sub
Errh:
Step="Where should I go if the Activate timed out"
Exit sub

Subject: [talkbws] RE: Script Timeout
If all your steps have a Timeout Rule, then you are covered. Of course that
means you can't have any steps that only have a single Always rule.

Subject: [talkbws] Script Timeout
Has anyone implemented logic to have a script timeout. I know that I can set a
particular step to timeout after so long. However, I would like to set a
timeout on my script overall. This way if it hangs on any step I am covered.
Thought someone may have come up with a clever method for doing this.
Thanks,
Davy
