The OpenD Programming Language

waitTimeout

Waits until either the process associated with pid terminates or the elapsed time exceeds the given timeout.

If the process terminates within the given duration it behaves exactly like wait, except that it returns a tuple (true, exit code).

If the process does not terminate within the given duration it will stop waiting and return (false, 0).

The timeout may not exceed (uint.max - 1).msecs (~ 7 weeks, 17 hours).

This function is Windows-Only.
