how to terminate a script?

[gabor <ga...@z10n.net>]

hi,

i've been using bsf to run javascript scripts..

what can i do if someone starts a script like 
"while(1) {}"
?

is there a way to stop it's execution?

i tried BSFManager.terminate()
but it did not help...

for now i am running the scripts in a different thread,
and ignore it after a given timeout,
so it will not block the execution of the whole program,
but that's all i can do..that thread will still 
run/consume-resources forever.

is there anything to stop a script from a different thread?

or to execute it with a timeout value?

thanks,
gabor
