Attribute

LoginTimeout (LT)

Purpose

The number of seconds the driver waits for a connection to be established before returning control to the application and generating a timeout error. To override the value that is set by this connection option for an individual connection, set a different value in the SQL_ATTR_LOGIN_TIMEOUT connection attribute using the SQLSetConnectAttr() function.

Valid Values

0 | x

where:

x
is a positive integer that specifies a number of seconds.

Behavior

If set to 0, the connection request does not time out, but the driver responds to the SQL_ATTR_LOGIN_TIMEOUT attribute.

If set to x, the connection request times out after the specified number of seconds unless the application overrides this setting with the SQL_ATTR_LOGIN_TIMEOUT attribute.

Default

15
