        there are many timeout decorators out there - that one focuses on correctness when using with Classes, methods,
        class methods, static methods and so on, preserving also the traceback information for Pycharm debugging.
        
        There is also a powerful eval function, it allows to read the desired timeout value even from Class attributes.
        
        It is very flexible and can be used with python >= 3.5, pypy3 and probably other dialects.
        
        There are two timeout strategies implemented, the ubiquitous method using "Signals" and the second using Multiprocessing.
        Using "Signals" is slick and lean, but there are nasty caveats, please check section `Caveats using Signals`_
        
        The default strategy is therefore using Multiprocessing, but You can also use Signals, You have been warned !
        
        Due to the lack of signals on Windows, or for threaded functions (in a subthread) where signals cant be used, Your only choice is Multiprocessing,
        this is set automatically.
        
        Under Windows the decorated function and results needs to be pickable.
        For that purpose we use "multiprocess" and "dill" instead of "multiprocessing" and "pickle", in order to be able to use this decorator on more sophisticated objects.
        Communication to the subprocess is done via "multiprocess.pipe" instead of "queue", which is faster and might also work on Amazon AWS.

        use with Windows
        ----------------
        
        For the impatient:
        
        All You need to do is to put the decorated function into another Module, NOT in the main program.
        
        For those who want to dive deeper :
        
        
        On Windows the main module is imported again (but with a name != 'main') because Python is trying to simulate
        a forking-like behavior on a system that doesn't support forking. multiprocessing tries to create an environment
        similar to Your main process by importing the main module again with a different name. Thats why You need to shield
        the entry point of Your program with the famous " if __name__ == '__main__': "
        
        .. code-block:: py
        
            import lib_foo
        
            def some_module():
                lib_foo.function_foo()
        
            def main():
                some_module()
        
        
            # here the subprocess stops loading, because __name__ is NOT '__main__'
            if __name__ = '__main__':
                main()
        
        This is a problem of Windows OS, because the Windows Operating System does not support "fork"
        
        You can find more information on that here:
        
        https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45110287/workaround-for-using-name-main-in-python-multiprocessing
        
        https://docs.python.org/2/library/multiprocessing.html#windows
        
        Since main.py is loaded again with a different name but "__main__", the decorated function now points to objects that do not exist anymore, therefore You need to put the decorated Classes and functions into another module.
        In general (especially on windows) , the main() program should not have anything but the main function, the real thing should happen in the modules.
        I am also used to put all settings or configurations in a different file - so all processes or threads can access them (and also to keep them in one place together, not to forget typing hints and name completion in Your favorite editor)
        
        The "dill" serializer is able to serialize also the __main__ context, that means the objects in our example are pickled to "__main__.lib_foo", "__main__.some_module","__main__.main" etc.
        We would not have this limitation when using "pickle" with the downside that "pickle" can not serialize following types:
        
        functions with yields, nested functions, lambdas, cell, method, unboundmethod, module, code, methodwrapper,
        dictproxy, methoddescriptor, getsetdescriptor, memberdescriptor, wrapperdescriptor, xrange, slice,
        notimplemented, ellipsis, quit
        
        additional dill supports:
        
        save and load python interpreter sessions, save and extract the source code from functions and classes, interactively diagnose pickling errors
        
        To support more types with the decorator, we selected dill as serializer, with the small downside that methods and classes can not be decorated in the __main__ context, but need to reside in a module.
        
        You can find more information on that here:
        https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45616584/serializing-an-object-in-main-with-pickle-or-dill
        
        **Timing :** Since spawning takes some unknown timespan (all imports needs to be done again !), You can specify when the timeout should start, please read the section `hard timeout`_
        
        Here an example that will work on Linux but wont work on Windows (the variable "name" and the function "sleep" wont be found in the spawned process :
        
        
        .. code-block:: py
        
            main.py:
        
            from time import sleep
            from wrapt_timeout_decorator import *
        
            name="my_var_name"
        
            @timeout(5, use_signals=False)
            def mytest():
                # this example does NOT work on windows, please check the example below !
                # You need to move this function into a module to be able to run it on windows.
                print("Start ", name)
                for i in range(1,10):
                    sleep(1)
                    print("{} seconds have passed".format(i))
                return i
        
        
            if __name__ == '__main__':
                mytest()
        
        
        here the same example, which will work on Windows:
        
        
        .. code-block:: py
        
        
            # my_program_main.py:
        
            import lib_test
        
            def main():
                lib_test.mytest()
        
            if __name__ == '__main__':
                main()
        
        
        .. code-block:: py
        
        
                # conf_my_program.py:
        
                class ConfMyProgram(object):
                    def __init__(self):
                        self.name:str = 'my_var_name'
        
                conf_my_program = ConfMyProgram()
        
        
        .. code-block:: py
        
            # lib_test.py:
        
            from wrapt_timeout_decorator import *
            from time import sleep
            from conf_my_program import conf_my_program
        
            # use_signals = False is not really necessary here, it is set automatically under Windows
            # but You can force NOT to use Signals under Linux
            @timeout(5, use_signals=False)
            def mytest():
                print("Start ", conf_my_program.name)
                for i in range(1,10):
                    sleep(1)
                    print("{} seconds have passed".format(i))
                return i
        
        Caveats using Signals
        ---------------------
        
        as ABADGER1999 points out in his blog https://anonbadger.wordpress.com/2018/12/15/python-signal-handlers-and-exceptions/
        using signals and the TimeoutException is probably not the best idea - because it can be catched in the decorated function.
        
        Of course You can use Your own Exception, derived from the Base Exception Class, but the code might still not work as expected -
        see the next example - You may try it out in `jupyter <https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/bitranox/wrapt_timeout_decorator/master?filepath=jupyter_test_wrapt_timeout_decorator.ipynb>`_:
        
        .. code-block:: py
        
            import time
            from wrapt_timeout_decorator import *
        
            # caveats when using signals - the TimeoutError raised by the signal may be catched
            # inside the decorated function.
            # So You might use Your own Exception, derived from the base Exception Class.
            # In Python-3.7.1 stdlib there are over 300 pieces of code that will catch your timeout
            # if you were to base an exception on Exception. If you base your exception on BaseException,
            # there are still 231 places that can potentially catch your exception.
            # You should use use_signals=False if You want to make sure that the timeout is handled correctly !
            # therefore the default value for use_signals = False on this decorator !
        
            @timeout(5, use_signals=True)
            def mytest(message):
                try:
                    print(message)
                    for i in range(1,10):
                        time.sleep(1)
                        print('{} seconds have passed - lets assume we read a big file here'.format(i))
                # TimeoutError is a Subclass of OSError - therefore it is catched here !
                except OSError:
                    for i in range(1,10):
                        time.sleep(1)
                        print('Whats going on here ? - Ooops the Timeout Exception is catched by the OSError ! {}'.format(i))
                except Exception:
                    # even worse !
                    pass
                except:
                    # the worst - and exists more then 300x in actual Python 3.7 stdlib Code !
                    # so You never really can rely that You catch the TimeoutError when using Signals !
                    pass
        
        
            if __name__ == '__main__':
                try:
                    mytest('starting')
                    print('no Timeout Occured')
                except TimeoutError():
                    # this will never be printed because the decorated function catches implicitly the TimeoutError !
                    print('Timeout Occured')
        
        nested Timeouts
        ----------------
        
        since there is only ONE ALARM Signal on Unix per process, You need to use use_signals = False for nested timeouts.
        The outmost decorator might use Signals, all nested Decorators needs to use use_signals=False (the default)
        You may try it out in `jupyter <https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/bitranox/wrapt_timeout_decorator/master?filepath=jupyter_test_wrapt_timeout_decorator.ipynb>`_:
        
        .. code-block:: py
        
            # main.py
            import mylib
        
            # this example will work on Windows and Linux
            # since the decorated function is not in the __main__ scope but in another module !
        
            if __name__ == '__main__':
            mylib.outer()
        
        
        .. code-block:: py
        
            # mylib.py
            from wrapt_timeout_decorator import *
            import time
        
            # this example will work on Windows and Linux
            # since the decorated function is not in the __main__ scope but in another module !
        
            @timeout(1, use_signals=True)
            def outer():
                inner()
        
            @timeout(5)
            def inner():
                time.sleep(3)
                print("Should never be printed if you call outer()")
        
        Alternative Exception
        ---------------------
        
        Specify an alternate exception to raise on timeout:
        
        .. code-block:: py
        
            import time
            from wrapt_timeout_decorator import *
        
            @timeout(5, timeout_exception=StopIteration)
            def mytest(message):
                # this example does NOT work on windows, please check the section
                # "use with Windows" in the README.rst
                print(message)

                                The creation of the process on windows might take 0.5 seconds and more, depending on the size
                                of the main module and modules to be imported. Especially useful for small timeout periods.

        decorator parameters starting with \dec_* and use_signals can be overridden by kwargs with the same name :
        
        .. code-block:: py

                for i in range(1,10):
                    time.sleep(1)

        Multithreading
        --------------
        
        By default, timeout-decorator uses signals to limit the execution time
        of the given function. This approach does not work if your function is
        executed not in the main thread (for example if it's a worker thread of
        the web application) or when the operating system does not support signals (aka Windows).
        There is an alternative timeout strategy for this case - by using multiprocessing.
        This is done automatically, so you dont need to set ``use_signals=False``.
        You can force not to use signals on Linux by passing the parameter ``use_signals=False`` to the timeout
        decorator function for testing. If Your program should (also) run on Windows, I recommend to test under
        Windows, since Windows does not support forking (read more under Section ``use with Windows``).
        The following Code will run on Linux but NOT on Windows :
        
        .. code-block:: py
        
            import time
            from wrapt_timeout_decorator import *
        
            @timeout(5, use_signals=False)
            def mytest(message):
                # this example does NOT work on windows, please check the section
                # "use with Windows" in the README.rst
                print(message)
                for i in range(1,10):
                    time.sleep(1)
                    print('{} seconds have passed'.format(i))
        
            if __name__ == '__main__':
                mytest('starting')
        
        .. warning::
            Make sure that in case of multiprocessing strategy for timeout, your function does not return objects which cannot
            be pickled, otherwise it will fail at marshalling it between master and child processes. To cover more cases,
            we use multiprocess and dill instead of multiprocessing and pickle.
        
            Since Signals will not work on Windows, it is disabled by default, whatever You set.
        
        use as function not as decorator
        --------------------------------
        
        You can use the timout also as function, without using as decorator:
        
        .. code-block:: py
        
            import time
            from wrapt_timeout_decorator import *
        
            def mytest(message):
                print(message)
                for i in range(1,10):
                    time.sleep(1)
                    print('{} seconds have passed'.format(i))
        
            if __name__ == '__main__':
                timeout(dec_timeout=5)(mytest)('starting')
        
        use powerful eval function
        --------------------------
        
        This is very powerful, but can be also very dangerous if you accept strings to evaluate from UNTRUSTED input.
        
        read: https://nedbatchelder.com/blog/201206/eval_really_is_dangerous.html
        
        If enabled, the parameter of the function dec_timeout, or the parameter passed by kwarg dec_timeout will
        be evaluated if its type is string.
        
        You can access :
        
        - "wrapped"
           (the decorated function and his attributes)
        
        - "instance"
           Example: 'instance.x' - an attribute of the instance of the class instance
        
        - "args"
           Example: 'args[0]' - the timeout is the first argument in args
        
        - "kwargs"
           Example: 'kwargs["max_time"] * 2'
        
        - and of course all attributes You can think of - that makes it powerful but dangerous.
           by default allow_eval is disabled - but You can enable it in order to cover some edge cases without
           modifying the timeout decorator.
        
        
        .. code-block:: py
        
            # this example does NOT work on windows, please check the section
            # "use with Windows" in the README.rst
            def class ClassTest4(object):
                def __init__(self,x):
                    self.x=x
        
                @timeout('instance.x', dec_allow_eval=True)
                def test_method(self):
                    print('swallow')
        
                @timeout(1)
                def foo3(self):
                    print('parrot')
        
                @timeout(dec_timeout='args[0] + kwargs.pop("more_time",0)', dec_allow_eval=True)
                def foo4(self,base_delay):
                    time.sleep(base_delay)
                    print('knight')
        
        
            if __name__ == '__main__':
                # or override via kwarg :
                my_foo = ClassTest4(3)
                my_foo.test_method(dec_timeout='instance.x * 2.5 +1')
                my_foo.foo3(dec_timeout='instance.x * 2.5 +1', dec_allow_eval=True)
                my_foo.foo4(1,more_time=3)  # this will time out in 4 seconds
        
        detect pickle errors
        --------------------
        
        remember that decorated functions (and their results !) needs to be pickable under Windows. In order to detect pickle problems You can use :
        
        .. code-block:: py
        
            from wrapt_timeout_decorator import *
            # always remember that the "object_to_pickle" should not be defined within the main context
            detect_unpickable_objects(object_to_pickle, dill_trace=True)  # type: (Any, bool) -> Dict
        
        Logging in decorated functions
        ------------------------------
        
        when signals=False (on Windows), logging in the wrapped function can be tricky. Since a new process is
        created, we can not use the logger object of the main process. Further development is needed to
        connect to the main process logger via a socket or queue.
        
        When the wrapped function is using logger=logging.getLogger(), a new Logger Object is created.
        Setting up that Logger can be tricky (File Logging from two Processes is not supported ...)
        I think I will use a socket to implement that (SocketHandler and some Receiver Thread)
        
        Until then, You need to set up Your own new logger in the decorated function, if logging is needed.
        Again - keep in mind that You can not write to the same logfile from different processes !
        (although there are logging modules which can do that)
        
        hard timeout
        ------------
        
        when use_signals = False (this is the only method available on Windows), the timeout function is realized by starting
        another process and terminate that process after the given timeout.
        Under Linux fork() of a new process is very fast, under Windows it might take some considerable time,
        because the main context needs to be reloaded on spawn().
        Spawning of a small module might take something like 0.5 seconds and more.
        
        By default, when using signals=False, the timeout begins after the new process is created.
        
        This means that the timeout given, is the time the decorated process is allowed to run, not included the time excluding the time to setup the process itself.
        This is especially important if You use small timeout periods :
        
        for Instance:
        
        
        .. code-block:: py
        
            @timeout(0.1)
            def test():
                time.sleep(0.2)
        
        
        the total time to timeout on linux with use_signals = False will be around 0.1 seconds, but on windows this can take
        about 0.6 seconds: 0.5 seconds to spawn the new process, and giving the function test() 0.1 seconds to run !
        
        If You need that a decorated function should timeout exactly** after the given timeout period, You can pass
        the parameter dec_hard_timeout=True. in this case the called function will timeout exactly** after the given time,
        no matter how long it took to spawn the process itself. In that case, if You set up the timeout too short,
        the process might never run and will always timeout during spawning.
        
        ** well, more or less exactly - it still takes some short time to return from the spawned process - so be extra cautious on very short timeouts !

        -----
        2018-09-13: use multiprocessing.pipe instead of queue
        If we are not able to use signals, we need to spawn a new process.
        This was done in the past by pickling the target function and put it on a queue -
        now this is done with a half-duplex pipe.
        
        - it is faster
