From 11c34e0f6cf9cb2715c28b85a1ec8f47bf5ca8dd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gregory Maxwell Date: Sat, 10 Mar 2012 16:05:28 -0500 Subject: Resolves issue #922 - "wallet passphrase timeout of several years doesn't work" 2^31 milliseconds is only about 25 days. Also clamps Sleep() to 10 years, because it currently sleeps for 0 seconds when the sleep time would cross 2^31 seconds since the epoch. Hopefully boost will be fixed by 2028. --- src/util.h | 4 +++- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'src/util.h') diff --git a/src/util.h b/src/util.h index c4ee19fe01..4e4cbb9f60 100644 --- a/src/util.h +++ b/src/util.h @@ -115,7 +115,9 @@ typedef u_int SOCKET; #define Beep(n1,n2) (0) inline void Sleep(int64 n) { - boost::thread::sleep(boost::get_system_time() + boost::posix_time::milliseconds(n)); + /*Boost has a year 2038 problem— if the request sleep time is past epoch+2^31 seconds the sleep returns instantly. + So we clamp our sleeps here to 10 years and hope that boost is fixed by 2028.*/ + boost::thread::sleep(boost::get_system_time() + boost::posix_time::milliseconds(n>315576000000LL?315576000000LL:n)); } #endif -- cgit v1.2.3
