CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT_MS(3curl_easy_setopt optionCURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT_MS(3)

NAME
       CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT_MS - timeout for the connect phase

SYNOPSIS
       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT_MS, long
       timeout);

DESCRIPTION
       Pass a long. It should contain the maximum time	in  milliseconds  that
       you allow the connection phase to the server to take.  This only limits
       the connection phase, it has no impact once it has  connected.  Set  to
       zero  to  switch  to the default built-in connection timeout - 300 sec-
       onds. See also the CURLOPT_TIMEOUT_MS(3) option.

       In unix-like systems, this might cause signals to be used  unless  CUR-
       LOPT_NOSIGNAL(3) is set.

       If  both CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT(3) and CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT_MS(3) are
       set, the value set last will be used.

DEFAULT
       300000

PROTOCOLS

	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT_MS, 10000L);

	 curl_easy_perform(curl);
       }
