Timeout Property

Length of time in seconds the component waits for a response from the SAP system.

Syntax

 sapclient.getTimeout([callback])
 sapclient.setTimeout( timeout, [callback])

Default Value

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for the getTimeout([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err, data){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'data' is the value returned by the method.

The callback for the setTimeout([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

If connecting via the SAP RFC SDK or NetWeaver RFC SDK, the class will invoke the RFC_SetSystemTimeout function to define the timeout.

If connecting via SOAP (SapConnection.SoapURL is set), the class will treat this value as a HTTP request timeout.
