stream_set_timeout( resource$stream, int$seconds, [int$microseconds = 0] ): bool

Sets the timeout value on stream, expressed in the sum of seconds and microseconds.

When the stream times out, the 'timed_out' key of the array returned by stream_get_meta_data is set to true, although no error/warning is generated.

Parameters

stream

The target stream.

seconds

The seconds part of the timeout to be set.

microseconds

The microseconds part of the timeout to be set.

Return Values

Returns true on success or false on failure.

Notes

Note:

This function doesn't work with advanced operations like stream_socket_recvfrom, use stream_select with timeout parameter instead.

This function was previously called as set_socket_timeout and later socket_set_timeout but this usage is deprecated.
