<p>
The <code class="methodname">DB_TXN-&gt;set_timeout()</code> method sets timeout values for locks or
transactions for the specified transaction.
</p>
<p>
Timeouts are checked whenever a thread of control blocks on a lock or
when deadlock detection is performed. In the case of
<code class="literal">DB_SET_LOCK_TIMEOUT</code>, the timeout is for any single lock request. In
the case of <code class="literal">DB_SET_TXN_TIMEOUT</code>, the timeout is for the life of the
transaction. As timeouts are only checked when the lock request first
blocks or when deadlock detection is performed, the accuracy of the
timeout depends on how often deadlock detection is performed.
</p>
<p>
Timeout values may be specified for the database environment as a
whole. Also, the database environment must enable the locking
subsystem before timeout values can be specified. See
<a class="xref" href="envset_timeout.html" title="DB_ENV-&gt;set_timeout()">DB_ENV-&gt;set_timeout()</a>
for more information.
</p>
<p>
The <code class="methodname">DB_TXN-&gt;set_timeout()</code> method configures operations performed on
the underlying transaction, not only operations performed using the
specified <a class="link" href="txn.html" title="Chapter 12.  The DB_TXN Handle">DB_TXN</a> handle.
</p>
<p>
The <code class="methodname">DB_TXN-&gt;set_timeout()</code> method may be called at any time during the
life of the application.
</p>
<p>
The <code class="methodname">DB_TXN-&gt;set_timeout()</code> <span>
<span>
method returns a non-zero error value on failure and 0 on success.
