timedcachedfragment

In Rails, caching is one of those things that is made pretty easy, but can also be difficult when you want to do complex tasks with the caching -- such as expiring it. There are two ways with expire_fragment within the logic of your controllers or using an Observers. This plugin allows caching to ... [More] be expired on predefined time limit. The idea is that the caching takes cared of the expiration instead of writing conditions in the controller. I understand that it goes against the idea of why the caching mechanism does not have them now. To the plugin. Its an extension of cache method that has logic for the time limit. The method to use within views is called cache_timeout. The first argument of the method is the regular Hash/String of the cache key and the second argument is the timeout value (being a Time class value). Example usage: # This is last 5 minutes of posts from our forums: <%cache_timeout('forum_listing',5.minutes.from_now) do %> <% for post in @posts %> <%=post.title%> - by <%=post.author.username%> at <%=post.created_at>Unknown end tag for <%end%> <%end%> To enforce the timeout cache value within the controller don't use the read_fragment method -- unless really needed. The method that is provided to check that the timeout value has is expired is is_cache_expired?. The method takes the argument of the cache key. Example Usage within controller: def list if is_cache_expired?('forum_listing') @posts = Post.find(:all) end end [Less]

timeout-interval-idle

Creating Timeouts and IntervalsJavascript allows you to create Timeouts and Intervals using this syntax: setTimeout("alert('I waited 5 seconds!');",5000); setInterval("alert('I happen every 8 seconds');",8000);These functions are very useful, but unfortunately ... [More] they only accept code as a string. This module allows you to use jQuery to create timeouts and intervals that also accept functions, like this: $.timeout(function() { alert('I waited 5 seconds'); }, 5000); $.interval(function() { alert('I happen every 8 seconds'); }, 8000);You can also create Timeouts and Intervals from predefined functions: function now() { alert('now!'); } $.timeout(now, 5000); $.interval(now, 8000);Clearing Timeouts and IntervalsJavascript allows you to create and clear Timeouts and the Intervals using the following sytax: var to = setTimeout("alert('I waited 5 seconds!');",5000); var it = setInterval("alert('I happen every 8 seconds');",8000); clearTimeout(to); clearInterval(it);Using this plugin, the same can be done like this: var to = $.timeout(function() { alert('I waited 5 seconds'); }, 5000); var it = $.interval(function() { alert('I happen every 8 seconds'); }, 8000); $.clear(to); $.clear(it);Creating Idle TimeoutsIn addition to the above functionality, this plugin provides a new type of timed function, the Idle Timeout. Every time you create a new Idle Timeout, any previous Idle Timeout is cleared. This means that you can make an event happen X seconds after the last time this functions is called. For example: The above code will set an Idle Timeout (and clear the last one) every time the user types into the input box. 3 seconds after the last key is pressed, the idle function will run and the contents of the input box will be alerted.

delphitimeouts

Let's you limit execution time of a procedure/function. Timeout will be called off automatically with the execution of a last statement of the procedure/function in which it was created. The thread which didn't finish it's work, won't be killed abruptly! It will magically raise ... [More] ETimeoutException, so you have the ability to release resources and free memory during stack unwinding... And you can use it from GUI/main thread. procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject); begin try timeout(4000); // this is where "magic" happens... while True do begin Sleep(10000); // some real processing here end; except on E: Exception do ShowMessage(E.ClassName); end; end; [Less]
