## ◆ dcmSocketReceiveTimeout

DCMTK_DCMNET_EXPORT OFGlobal<Sint32> dcmSocketReceiveTimeout
| extern

Global timeout in seconds for receiving data on a socket from a remote host.

The default value is 60, which is useful in cases where the receiver (e.g. storescp) looses the connection to the sender because the network cable is pulled (e.g. for a mobile device). A value of 0 means that the recv() will never timeout, and a value of -1 disables the call of the corresponding setsockopt() function, so that the system's default behavior remains unchanged.
