Possible to use Promise.in with infinite time?

Question

Is there a direct way to use Promise.in (or other sub/method/class) to achieve an indefinite amount of time? In other words the Promise is never resolved.

Currently I'm checking the $time when the promise is kept to see if an indefinite time was requested (indicated by negative or 0 value) and preventing the react block from exiting.

Is isn't a terrible solution, but is there are more idiomatic way of achieving this?

my $time=0;
react {
    whenever Promise.in($time) {
          #check if time is 0
          done if $time > 0;
    }
    whenever signal(SIGINT) {
        done;
    }

    #whenever Supply...{
    #}
}

Answer 1

You can actually pass Inf to Promise.in, like this:

await Promise.in(Inf);
say "never happens";

Answer 2

whenever Promise.new {

pretty much gives you a promise that will never be kept, so the associated code will never fire. Not sure why you would do that, though.
