NAME
sqlite3_busy_timeout —
Set A Busy
Timeout
SYNOPSIS
int
sqlite3_busy_timeout(
sqlite3*,
int ms);
DESCRIPTION
This routine sets a busy handler that sleeps for a specified amount of time when
a table is locked. The handler will sleep multiple times until at least
"ms" milliseconds of sleeping have accumulated. After at least
"ms" milliseconds of sleeping, the handler returns 0 which causes
sqlite3_step() to return SQLITE_BUSY.
Calling this routine with an argument less than or equal to zero turns off all
busy handlers.
There can only be a single busy handler for a particular database connection at
any given moment. If another busy handler was defined (using
sqlite3_busy_handler()) prior to calling this routine, that other busy handler
is cleared.
