SQLiteDatabase->busyTimeout — Set busy timeout duration, or disable busy handlers

### Description

void sqlite_busy_timeout ( resource `$dbhandle` , int `$milliseconds` )

Object oriented style (method):

SQLiteDatabase
void busyTimeout ( int `$milliseconds` )

Set the maximum time, in milliseconds, that SQLite will wait for a `dbhandle` to become ready for use.

### Parameters

`dbhandle`

  The SQLite Database resource; returned from sqlite_open() when used procedurally. This parameter is not required when using the object-oriented method.

`milliseconds`

  The number of milliseconds. When set to 0, busy handlers will be disabled and SQLite will return immediately with a SQLITE_BUSY status code if another process/thread has the database locked for an update.

  PHP sets the default busy timeout to be 60 seconds when the database is opened.

  > Note: There are one thousand (1000) milliseconds in one second.

### Return Values

No value is returned.

### Examples

Example#1 Procedural style

`<?php
$dbhandle = sqlite_open('sqlitedb');
sqlite_busy_timeout($dbhandle, 10000); // set timeout to 10 seconds
sqlite_busy_timeout($dbhandle, 0); // disable busy handler
?>`

Example#2 Object oriented style

`<?php
$dbhandle = new SQLiteDatabase('sqlitedb');
$dbhandle->busyTimeout(10000); // 10 seconds
$dbhandle->busyTimeout(0); // disable
?>`
