In software development, configuring a timeout period prevents a program from being blocked while it waits for a response. Not configuring a timeout can waste resources or even cause a system crash. A timeout period that is too short can interrupt a task before it completes, which affects normal operations. A well-configured timeout period improves system stability and user experience. This topic describes how to configure timeouts for the V2.0 .NET SDK.
Timeout configuration methods
The priority of timeout configurations, in descending order, is: RuntimeOptions configuration -> Config configuration .
You can configure the timeout period for the current request using
AlibabaCloud.TeaUtil.Models.RuntimeOptions.// Set runtime parameters. This setting is valid only for requests that use this RuntimeOptions instance. var runtimeOptions = new AlibabaCloud.TeaUtil.Models.RuntimeOptions(); // The default connection timeout is 5 × 1,000 milliseconds. runtimeOptions.ConnectTimeout = 50000; // The default read timeout is 10 × 1,000 milliseconds. runtimeOptions.ReadTimeout = 10000;You can configure the global timeout period using
AlibabaCloud.OpenApiClient.Models.Config.var ecsConfig = new AlibabaCloud.OpenApiClient.Models.Config { // The default connection timeout is 5 × 1,000 milliseconds. ConnectTimeout = 50000, // The default read timeout is 10 × 1,000 milliseconds. ReadTimeout = 10000 };
