scala - How to do: Try {block of code} for X duration and catch {Exceptions, such as Timeout}? -

alright title little obscure since unsure how word it, trying try-catch statement timeout... here's pseudo-code may describe i'm trying do:

try (10 seconds) {   *make connection , things* } catch {   case ex1: timeoutexception => *do something*   case ex2: exception => *do else* } 

currently there bug in hardware i'm working request connection never gets response back, sits there , doesn't catch exceptions. since it's bug (that should temporary), don't want manipulate architecture of application (specifically not want create new actor account small) , ideal if implement pseudo-code within scope of class.

so question how implement pseudo-code above within scope of class it's in?

let me know if unclear! thank you!

try:

import scala.concurrent._ import executioncontext.implicits.global  val f = future {     // make connection , things } try {     await.result(f, 10 seconds); } catch {     case e: timeoutexception => //     case _ => // else } 

more info: futures , promises
