How do I set connect timeout on TcpStream

Question

I am trying to connect to a server which is unreachable using the following code:

println!("Connecting");
TcpStream::connect(s).unwrap();
println!("Connected");

When I run the code, it gets stuck on second line.

Output:

Connecting

In the meantime the answer changed, it's no longer "can't be done easily" but is:

TcpStream::connect_timeout()
