Method Detail

getProcess

public java.lang.Process getProcess()

getTimeLimit

public long getTimeLimit()

setTimeLimit

public void setTimeLimit(long timeLimit)

A timelimit > 0 will cause the timeout-destroy procedure to be started. The thread setting the timelimit will be the only one whose call to resetTimeLimit() is taken into account. If a new thread sets a new time limit while the old one is still running, the old one is silently stopped, and the new one is started as if the old one was not there.

resetTimeLimit()

resetTimeLimit

public void resetTimeLimit()

Reset the time limit to 0. Only the thread who initiated the latest time limit can also take it back. If another thread tries to reset the time limit, it is ignored.
