Hello all,

I'm looking for the right way to implement Javascript-like 
setInterval and setTimeout in D.

I don't want to use multiple threads + sleep as an 
implementation. It needs to be single threaded. I was thinking 
along the lines of creating a timer using ualarm/settimer and 
listening to SIGALARM. I want it to be efficient as i'll be using 
it for timing out HTTP requests.

Can someone guide me in the right direction?

Thanks for any help,
Shripad K.

dealing with timers. Coupled tango's signal/slot implementation 
with its Selector abstraction (with timeout) and things work like 
a charm.
