.SH NAME
|
|
curl_multi_timeout \- how long to wait for action before proceeding
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
CURLMcode curl_multi_timeout(CURLM *multi_handle, long *timeout);
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
An application using the libcurl multi interface should call
|
|
\fIcurl_multi_timeout(3)\fP to figure out how long it should wait for socket
|
|
actions \- at most \- before proceeding.
|
|
|
|
Proceeding means either doing the socket-style timeout action: call the
|
|
\fIcurl_multi_socket_action(3)\fP function with the \fBsockfd\fP argument set
|
|
to CURL_SOCKET_TIMEOUT, or call \fIcurl_multi_perform(3)\fP if you're using
|
|
the simpler and older multi interface approach.
|
|
|
|
The timeout value returned in the long \fBtimeout\fP points to, is in number
|
|
of milliseconds at this very moment. If 0, it means you should proceed
|
|
immediately without waiting for anything. If it returns -1, there's no timeout
|
|
at all set.
|
|
|
|
An application that uses the multi_socket API SHOULD NOT use this function, but
|
|
SHOULD instead use \fIcurl_multi_setopt(3)\fP and its
|
|
\fPCURLMOPT_TIMERFUNCTION\fP option for proper and desired behavior.
|
|
|
|
Note: if libcurl returns a -1 timeout here, it just means that libcurl
|
|
currently has no stored timeout value. You must not wait too long (more than a
|
|
few seconds perhaps) before you call curl_multi_perform() again.
|
|
.SH EXAMPLE
|
|
.nf
|
|
struct timeval timeout;
|
|
long timeo;
|
|
|
|
curl_multi_timeout(multi_handle, &timeo);
|
|
if(timeo < 0)
|
|
/* no set timeout, use a default */
|
|
timeo = 980;
|
|
|
|
timeout.tv_sec = timeo / 1000;
|
|
timeout.tv_usec = (timeo % 1000) * 1000;
|
|
|
|
/* wait for activities no longer than the set timeout */
|
|
select(maxfd+1, &fdread, &fdwrite, &fdexcep, &timeout);
|
|
.fi
|
|
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
|
|
The standard CURLMcode for multi interface error codes.
|
|
.SH "TYPICAL USAGE"
|
|
Call \fIcurl_multi_timeout(3)\fP, then wait for action on the sockets. You
|
|
figure out which sockets to wait for by calling \fIcurl_multi_fdset(3)\fP or
|
|
by a previous call to \fIcurl_multi_socket(3)\fP.
|
|
.SH AVAILABILITY
|
|
This function was added in libcurl 7.15.4.
