Handle network timeout in C#

HI,

I need to set the timeout value for the sockets to handle network
timeout in C#. I search for some API which is equivalent to that of the
setSoTimeout() method in Java.

Could any one of you please help me out?

Thanks,
Palaniappan.

Hi Palaniappan,

If you have a socket object, you can do this:

///
mySocketObj.Set SocketOption( SocketOptionLev el.Socket,
SocketOptionNam e.SendTimeout,
1000 );
///

This will set the send timeout to 1000 milliseconds. Setting the receive
timeout is just as easy ;-)

Remember though, these timeouts have no meaning when using the asynchronous
send/receive methods; they are only of use when using the synchronous
operations.

Hope this helps,

Hi, I am using .net remoting technology. I set up a .net remoting client and server in IIS. When the client calls the server, the server will run a long duration method (30-60seconds).

I'm not getting any reply to my previous thread so I'm stating a new one. I get a General Network Error due to my SqlCommand object not having a big enough CommandTimeout to complete very long sql statements. My question is this: Why does SQL generate a General Network Error instead of the Timeout Expired Error? When I run my program multiple times, there are cases where I'd get the Timeout Expired Error ("The timeout period elapsed...

Hi, I'm wondering how I can find out when a request timeout has occurred and handle it programmatically. Here's is what I have so far: // This handler is added to the web application's Error event // somewhere else with this code: // this.Error += new EventHandler( D2LWebApp_Error );

I have written a script that uses the urllib2 module to download web pages for parsing. If there is no network interface, urllib2 hangs for a very long time before it raises an exception. I have set the socket timeout with socket.setdefaulttimeout(), however, where there is no network interface, this seems to be ignored - presumably, because without a network interface, there is nothing for the socket module to interact with.

Ive been experimenting with ways to discover computers on the network. Most of what I have tried is centered around looping through our network address ranges to discover the names of the computers up and running on the network.

I have an app that calls a webmethod. Everything works fine except when you, the client, loses network connectivity during the request. When the connection is lost the client applications hangs. I tried setting the Timeout property on the client but still an error is never raised. Is there a workaround for this?

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
