.TH CURLMOPT_TIMERFUNCTION 3 "17 Jun 2014" "libcurl 7.37.0" "curl_multi_setopt options"
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
CURLMOPT_TIMERFUNCTION \- set callback to receive timeout values
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.nf
|
|
#include <curl/curl.h>
|
|
|
|
int timer_callback(CURLM *multi, /* multi handle */
|
|
long timeout_ms, /* see above */
|
|
void *userp); /* private callback pointer */
|
|
|
|
CURLMcode curl_multi_setopt(CURLM *handle, CURLMOPT_TIMERFUNCTION, timer_callback);
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
Pass a pointer to your callback function, which should match the prototype
|
|
shown above.
|
|
|
|
This callback function will be called when the timeout value changes. The
|
|
\fBtimeout_ms\fP value is at what latest time the application should call one
|
|
of the \&"performing" functions of the multi interface
|
|
(\fIcurl_multi_socket_action(3)\fP and \fIcurl_multi_perform(3)\fP) - to allow
|
|
libcurl to keep timeouts and retries etc to work. A \fBtimeout_ms\fP value of
|
|
-1 means that there is no timeout at all, and 0 means that the timeout is
|
|
already expired. libcurl attempts to limit calling this only when the fixed
|
|
future timeout time actually changes.
|
|
|
|
The \fBuserp\fP pointer is set with \fICURLMOPT_TIMERDATA(3)\fP.
|
|
|
|
The timer callback should return 0 on success, and -1 on error. This callback
|
|
can be used instead of, or in addition to, \fIcurl_multi_timeout(3)\fP.
