# sqlite_busy_timeout

(PHP 5)

sqlite_busy_timeout

(no version information, might be only in CVS)

SQLiteDatabase->busyTimeout -- Set busy timeout duration, or disable busy handlers

## Description

void sqlite_busy_timeout ( resource dbhandle, int milliseconds )

Object oriented style (method):

class SQLiteDatabase {
void busyTimeout ( int milliseconds )
}

Set the maximum time, in milliseconds, that SQLite will wait for a dbhandle to become ready for use.

## Parameters

dbhandle

  The SQLite Database resource; returned from sqlite_open() when used procedurally. This parameter is not required when using the object-oriented method.

milliseconds

  The number of milliseconds. When set to 0, busy handlers will be disabled and SQLite will return immediately with a SQLITE_BUSY status code if another process/thread has the database locked for an update.

  PHP sets the default busy timeout to be 60 seconds when the database is opened.

  > Note: There are one thousand (1000) milliseconds in one second.

## Examples

Example 1. Procedural style
`<?php $dbhandle = sqlite_open('sqlitedb'); sqlite_busy_timeout($dbhandle, 10000); // set timeout to 10 seconds sqlite_busy_timeout($dbhandle, 0); // disable busy handler ?>`

Example 2. Object oriented style
`<?php $dbhandle = new SQLiteDatabase('sqlitedb'); $dbhandle->busyTimeout(10000); // 10 seconds $dbhandle->busyTimeout(0); // disable ?>`
