✨ libssh2_session_get_timeout(3) ✨

okay bestie, so this one is from the libssh2 manual and it's literally the chillest little getter function ever 💖

🌸 NAME 🌸

libssh2_session_get_timeout — get the timeout for blocking functions 🕐✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <libssh2.h>

long
libssh2_session_get_timeout(LIBSSH2_SESSION *session);

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

So basically, this function returns the timeout — in milliseconds — for how long a blocking libssh2 function call is allowed to wait around before it's like "okay this is taking forever" and decides the whole situation is an error, returning LIBSSH2_ERROR_TIMEOUT. ⏰💀

And like, out of the box? By default libssh2 has no timeout (zero) for blocking functions. So it'll just… vibe. Forever. Waiting. 🫶 No cap.

💖 RETURN VALUE 💖

The value of the timeout setting. That's it. That's the tea. 🍓

⭐ AVAILABILITY ⭐

Added in 1.2.9 — so she's been iconic for a minute 👑
