in thread Using Win32::Process to prevent timeouts

well all i need is a way to prevent my script from timing out, because when i add a delay in my script it times out after about 4 minutes, i want to avoid this if possible. im not sure if the win32::process does this, i just saw it in another script and i assume thats what it was doing, do u have a piece of code u use ro prevent ur scripts from timing out? thanks :)

    Ahh.. I see. Well your question is a tricky one because we really don't know any details about what you're doing. "timing out" could mean a lot of things, and there's a lot of variables that could effect things. The best bet is to start a new Seekers of Perl Wisdom node, posting what your problem is, and the offending script. Details will be very important if you'd like help that's benificial.

    Hope this helps,
