## 7.25.2.2. Reference

int grn_get_lock_timeout(void)

  Returns the lock timeout.

  `grn_ctx` acquires a lock for updating a shared value. If other `grn_ctx` is already updating the same value, `grn_ctx` that try to acquire a lock can’t acquires a lock. The `grn_ctx` that can’t acquires a lock waits 1 millisecond and try to acquire a lock again. The try is done `timeout` times. If the `grn_ctx` that can’t acquires a lock until `timeout` times, the tries are failed.

  The default lock timeout is `10000000`. It means that Groonga doesn’t report a lock failure until about 3 hours. (1 * 10000000 [msec] = 10000 [sec] = 166.666… [min] = 2.777… [hour])

  Returns

    The lock timeout.

grn_rc grn_set_lock_timeout(int timeout)

  Sets the lock timeout.

  See `grn_get_lock_timeout()` about lock timeout.

  There are some special values for `timeout`.

  > - `0`: It means that Groonga doesn’t retry acquiring a lock. Groonga reports a failure after one lock acquirement failure.

  > - negative value: It means that Groonga retries acquiring a lock until Groonga can acquire a lock.

  Parameters

    - timeout – The new lock timeout.

  Returns

    `GRN_SUCCESS`. It doesn’t fail.
