CDatabase::SetLoginTimeout

void SetLoginTimeout( DWORD dwSeconds );

Parameters

dwSeconds

The number of seconds to allow before a connection attempt times out.

Remarks

Call this member function — before you call OpenEx or Open — to override the default number of seconds allowed before an attempted data source connection times out. A connection attempt might time out if, for example, the DBMS is not available. Call SetLoginTimeout after you construct the uninitialized CDatabase object but before you call OpenEx or Open.

The default value for login timeouts is 15 seconds. Not all data sources support the ability to specify a login timeout value. If the data source does not support timeout, you get trace output but not an exception. A value of 0 means “infinite.”
