Causes libcurl to set a *timeout* period (in seconds) on the 36amount of time that the server is allowed to take in order to send a response 37message for a command before the session is considered dead. While libcurl is 38waiting for a response, this value overrides CURLOPT_TIMEOUT(3). It is 39recommended that if used in conjunction with CURLOPT_TIMEOUT(3), you set 40CURLOPT_SERVER_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT(3) to a value smaller than 41CURLOPT_TIMEOUT(3). 42 43This option was formerly known as CURLOPT_FTP_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT. 44 45# DEFAULT 46 47None 48 49# EXAMPLE 50 51~~~c 52int main(void) 53{ 54 CURL *curl = curl_easy_init(); 55 if(curl) { 56 CURLcode res; 57 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "ftp://example.com/slow.txt"); 58 /* wait no more than 23 seconds */ 59 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SERVER_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT, 23L); 60 res = curl_easy_perform(curl); 61 62 curl_easy_cleanup(curl); 63 } 64} 65~~~ 66 67# AVAILABILITY 68 69Added in 7.10.8. Used under this name since 7.20.0 70 71Support for SSH is predicated on a new enough (1.11.0) version of libssh2 72being available when compiling libcurl. 73 74# RETURN VALUE 75 76Returns CURLE_OK if supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not. Returns 77CURLE_BAD_FUNCTION_ARGUMENT if set to a negative value or a value that when 78converted to milliseconds is too large. 79
