NAME

curl_multi_timeout - how long to wait for action before proceeding

SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLMcode curl_multi_timeout(CURLM *multi_handle, long *timeout);

DESCRIPTION

An application using the libcurl multi interface should call curl_multi_timeout(3) 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 curl_multi_socket(3) function with the sockfd argument set to CURL_SOCKET_TIMEOUT and the easy argument set to CURL_EASY_TIMEOUT, or simply calling curl_multi_perform(3) if you're using the simpler and older multi interface approach.

The timeout value returned in the long timeout 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.

RETURN VALUE

The standard CURLMcode for multi interface error codes.

TYPICAL USAGE

Call curl_multi_timeout(3), then wait for action on the sockets. You figure out which sockets to wait for by calling curl_multi_fdset(3) or by a previous call to curl_multi_socket(3).
