Calling Rpc with timeout
websharperwebsharper rpc

I'd like to protect client code from slow / crashed / restarted server side by adding a timeout. First idea that came to my head is to use Async.StartChild with timeout:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
12
13
14
15

module Server =
    [<Rpc>]
    let foo() = Async.Sleep 10000
    
[<JavaScript>]
module Client =
	async {
    	while true do
        	JS.Alert "Calling foo..."
	        let! task = Async.StartChild (Server.foo(), 1000)
    	    do! task
        	JS.Alert "Foo has been called."
	        do! Async.Sleep 2000
	    } 
	| Async.Start

The result is not what I expected: it shows "Calling foo...", then pauses for 10 seconds, then "Foo has been called" appears. It seems it just ignore the timeout argument.

.

Yes, proxies for Async.StartChild and Async.AwaitEvent were ignoring their optional arguments. Fixed this now https://github.com/intellifactory/websharper/issues/507 Next release will contain these updates.
