<p>
The <code class="methodname">DB_ENV->set_timeout()</code> method sets timeout values for locks or
transactions in the database environment, and the wait time for a process to
exit the environment when
<a class="link" href="envopen.html#envopen_DB_REGISTER">DB_REGISTER</a>
recovery is needed.
</p>
<p>
DB_SET_LOCK_TIMEOUT and DB_SET_TXN_TIMEOUT timeouts are checked whenever a
thread of control blocks on a lock or when deadlock detection is performed.
In the case of DB_SET_LOCK_TIMEOUT, the lock is one requested explicitly
through the Lock subsystem interfaces. In the case of DB_SET_TXN_TIMEOUT, the
lock is one requested on behalf of a transaction. In either case, it
may be a lock requested by the database access methods underlying the
application. These timeouts are only checked when the lock request
first blocks or when deadlock detection is performed, the accuracy of
the timeout depends on how often deadlock detection is performed.
</p>
<p>
Lock and transaction timeout values specified for the database environment may
be overridden on a per-lock or per-transaction basis. See
<a class="xref" href="lockvec.html" title="DB_ENV->lock_vec()">DB_ENV->lock_vec()</a> and
<a class="xref" href="txnset_timeout.html" title="DB_TXN->set_timeout()">DB_TXN->set_timeout()</a> for
more information.
</p>
<p>
The <code class="methodname">DB_ENV->set_timeout()</code> method may not be used in a database
environment without a locking subsystem.
</p>
<p>
The <code class="methodname">DB_ENV->set_timeout()</code> method may be called at any time during the
life of the application.
</p>
<p>
The <code class="methodname">DB_ENV->set_timeout()</code> <span>
<span>
method returns a non-zero error value on failure and 0 on success.

The database environment's lock timeout value may also
be configured using the environment's <a href="../../programmer_reference/env_db_config.html#env_db_config.DB_CONFIG" class="olink">DB_CONFIG</a>

single line with the string "set_lock_timeout", one or
more whitespace characters, and the lock timeout
value. Because the <a href="../../programmer_reference/env_db_config.html#env_db_config.DB_CONFIG" class="olink">DB_CONFIG</a> file is read when the
