I am trying to implement a SwingWorker class within my application. Is there a way to set a length of time that after which, the SwingWorker “times out”? I was thinking that maybe throwing an OutOfTime exception that I can catch and then deal with. I’m just not sure how to implement it.
Thanks for all your help!
Why not embed your task within a Runnable, drop it into a new single-threaded ExecutorService and then perform a
get()on the resulting Future with an appropriate timeout. That would give you your timeout functionality, sinceget()will throw an exception if the job doesn’t complete in time.
