Summary:
You can use dbsettime() to specify a timeout for any SQL command. This
can be used to place an upper limit on the length of time an
application is willing to wait for data held by another user. Another
alternative is to use dbsqlsend() (which does not block) instead of
dbsqlexec() (which does). Then dbrbuf() can be used periodically to
determine if any results have been returned. Currently, there is no
way for an application to determine that results have not been
returned because another user has the desired data locked.
