Is there any way in a Win32 environment to ‘tune’ the timeout on a socket connect() call? Specifically, I would like to increase the timeout length. The sockets in use are non-blocking. Thanks!
Yes, this is possible.
If you’re in non-blocking mode after
connect(), you normally useselect()to wait till I/O is ready. This function has a parameter for specifying the timeout value and will return 0 in case of a timeout.
