TaskRunner Module

Contains a helper which can be used to implement timeouts and retries.

Function or value Description

Function or value	Description
`runWithRetries f retries` Full Usage: `runWithRetries f retries` Parameters: f : `unit -> 'a` - This function will be started. retries : `int` - A retry limit. Returns: `'a`	Retries the given function until a retry limit is reached or the function succeeds without exception. f : `unit -> 'a` This function will be started. retries : `int` A retry limit. Returns: `'a`
`waitFor f timeout testMS timeoutF` Full Usage: `waitFor f timeout testMS timeoutF` Parameters: f : `unit -> bool` - This function will be started. timeout : `TimeSpan` - A System.TimeSpan representing the timeout. testMS : `int` - An interval at which FAKE checks if the function has succeeded. timeoutF : `unit -> unit` - This function will be run if the timeout has been reached. Returns: `TimeSpan`	Waits until the given function returns true or the timeout is reached. f : `unit -> bool` This function will be started. timeout : `TimeSpan` A System.TimeSpan representing the timeout. testMS : `int` An interval at which FAKE checks if the function has succeeded. timeoutF : `unit -> unit` This function will be run if the timeout has been reached. Returns: `TimeSpan`

                      waitFor f timeout testMS timeoutF

Full Usage: waitFor f timeout testMS timeoutF

Parameters:

f : unit -> bool - This function will be started.

timeout : TimeSpan - A System.TimeSpan representing the timeout.

testMS : int - An interval at which FAKE checks if the function has succeeded.

timeoutF : unit -> unit - This function will be run if the timeout has been reached.

Returns: TimeSpan

Waits until the given function returns true or the timeout is reached.

f : unit -> bool: This function will be started.
timeout : TimeSpan: A System.TimeSpan representing the timeout.
testMS : int: An interval at which FAKE checks if the function has succeeded.
timeoutF : unit -> unit: This function will be run if the timeout has been reached.
