• Ant (4/4) Jan 07 2007 How do we wait or sleep for a specific amount of time in a thread?
• Tom S (2/9) Jan 07 2007 Afaics, msleep from std.c.time will do the trick
• Ant (7/17) Jan 07 2007 Thank you that's it.
• Sean Kelly (3/7) Jan 07 2007 It's never been there, as far as I know.

Thank you that's it.
my system (linux ubuntu 6.10) didn't find msleep but is good for usleep.

Sean, probably I remember sleep from std.c.time and looking for it on 
thread (should have grep phobos source tree...)


thanks,
