Class a.t.TimerThread(threading.Thread, TimerBase):

An active, standalone Timer thread that will execute the timers in the context of its thread.

In the context of pyAculab, this is mostly a test case for TimerBase.

In most cases, if you need timers, use the reactor instead.

Method	__init__	Undocumented
Method	add	Add a timer after interval in seconds.
Method	cancel	Cancel a timer.
Method	run	Run the Timer in the current thread.

Inherited from TimerBase:

Method	time_to_wait	Return the time to wait for the next timer in ms or -1
Method	get_pending	Return a list of pending timers.
