$timeout
ng
Angular's wrapper for window.setTimeout
. The fn
function is wrapped into a try/catch
block and delegates any exceptions to
$exceptionHandler
service.
The return value of registering a timeout function is a promise, which will be resolved when the timeout is reached and the timeout function is executed.

to
