Hi, just starting to ge my head around coroutines.  Love them but have a question.  I am using Channels as a queue between coroutines and would like to receive a message but timeout if no message appears within say 1 second.
I am currently using `withTimeout(1000){ incoming.receive() }` to do this but it seems to be hanging rather than timing out.  Am I missing something?

Could you please post all of the code as a gist and put a link here? It's hard to say anything from just a receiver you've posted.

Thanks, I have sorted it out I wasn't handling the `TimeoutCancellationException` properly

You can also use `withTimeoutOrNull`. Sometimes it is more convenient.

Thanks, will have more of a thorough investigation later.
