ClientTimeout Property

This property contains a timeout for the component.

Syntax

property ClientTimeout[ClientId: Integer]: Integer;

Default Value

0

Remarks

This property contains a timeout for the component.

If the Timeout property is set to 0, all operations return immediately, potentially failing with a 'WOULDBLOCK' error if data can't be sent or received immediately.

If Timeout is set to a positive value, the component will automatically retry each operation that would otherwise result in a 'WOULDBLOCK' error for a maximum of Timeout seconds.

The component will use DoEvents to enter an efficient wait loop during any potential waiting period, making sure that all system events are processed immediately as they arrive. This ensures that the host application does not "freeze" and remains responsive.

If Timeout expires, and the operation is not yet complete, the component raises an exception.

Please note that by default, all timeouts are inactivity timeouts, i.e. the timeout period is extended by Timeout seconds when any amount of data is successfully sent or received.

Optionally, the behavior of the component may be changed to absolute timeouts, i.e. the component will wait for a maximum of Timeout seconds since the beginning of the operation, without extending the timeout period during communications.

This behavior is controlled by the AbsoluteTimeout configuration setting.

The default value for the Timeout property is 0 (asynchronous operation).

The size of the array is controlled by the ClientCount property.

This property is not available at design time.

Data Type
