I missing a function - say it "timerun()". The idea behind this is to have an control mechanism which kill the request of the function when an result or Error is not return in between 10 sed (for exp.). Often I run in a Situation where such a kind of function would be great. Example: - connect to an Database ( Oracle ) with PEAR or manual - connection established - send a query() - this does not return due propebly an too high load in a given time - here comes the timerun() in play - which will stop the query execution by given time. Cheers -Peter Reproduce code: --------------- not yet available ... Expected result: ---------------- In the next release a function which cover this functionality. Actual result: -------------- does not exist ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=30853&edit=1
