When i execute a search in my application I want to have a timeout-function that gives the user a message and stops the search after 10 seconds.
How is this possible? Can you show me the code for that?
Let me know if you need to se my code and which part you need to see.
Thank you
Hello! Here is the Code. Forgot to tell you im using a backgroundworker do the suggestions you posted wont work.
I want to set a time limit for this piece
private void worker_DoWork(object sender, DoWorkEventArgs e) { progress = 0; Stopwatch sw = new Stopwatch(); sw.Start(); var donewithwork = false;
while (sw.ElapsedMilliseconds < 5000 && !donewithwork)

if (m_oWorker.CancellationPending == true)
{
e.Cancel = true;
}
else if (donewithwork != true)
{
{

progress = 20;
// Sets the cursorLimit to the four same values as the radiobuttons indicates (50,100,500 and 1000)
