+ <p>
+ The <code class="methodname">DB_ENV-&gt;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-&gt;lock_vec()">DB_ENV-&gt;lock_vec()</a> and
+ <a class="xref" href="txnset_timeout.html" title="DB_TXN-&gt;set_timeout()">DB_TXN-&gt;set_timeout()</a> for
+ more information.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ The <code class="methodname">DB_ENV-&gt;set_timeout()</code> method may not be used in a database
+ environment without a locking subsystem.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ The <code class="methodname">DB_ENV-&gt;set_timeout()</code> method may be called at any time during the
+ life of the application.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ The <code class="methodname">DB_ENV-&gt;set_timeout()</code> <span>
+ <span>
+ method returns a non-zero error value on failure and 0 on success.
