Serializable

public class TimedOutException

extends RuntimeException

This exception is potentially thrown from methods throughout JThreadKit that allow a timeout value to be specified. Timing out while waiting for something to occur may or may not be an exceptional situation--it depends on the individual application. Many of the classes in JThreadKit allow you to specify through the TimedOutExceptionOption whether or not you consider a timeout to be something that should result in an exception being thrown or whether a timeout is routine and should just return a value (very often false) to indicate that the timeout occurred. To allow for this flexibility, TimedOutException extends RuntimeException so a try-catch construct is not required in situations where you know the the option to throw TimedOutException has not been selected.
