The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
There are two options for this:
1) Use the select() api under a non-blocking socket connection.
Select() api has a timeout parameter that will allow you to set how long to
wait for data. Try this link on how to set connection to a non-blocking
connection and how to use select() api.

2) Use alarm() api under a blocked socket connection (I suspect that block
connection is what you are currently using). You can read this article from
Scott on how to use alarm() api:

Does anyone have an example of setting the timeout value for the RECV
command? I am using CONNECT to access a device from the i and a series of
sends and receives to download data to the device. I want to set the timeout
value on the RECV to only a few seconds so I can control the process in a
more timely fashion.
Thanks,
James
