void main() async {
final timeout = Duration(seconds: 5);
final errorOnTimeout = CanceledException.withStackTrace('Too long!');
final token = TimeoutToken(timeout, errorOnTimeout);
token.ensureStarted();
try {
await longProcess(token);
} on CanceledException catch (ex, st) {
print(ex.message);
print(ex.stackTrace);
print(st);
}
}
Future<void> longProcess(CancelationToken token) async {
// very long indeed!
while (true) {

await Future.delayed(const Duration(milliseconds: 100));
