Is it possible to set timeout for std::cin? For example, std::cin doesn't receive any data during 10 seconds - it throws an exception or returns an error.

Edited:

And what about timer from Boost library? As far as I know, it is portable library. Is it possible to ask timer of Boost library to throw exceptions after predefined period of time? I guess it can solve this problem.
