NetworkStream.WriteTimeout Property
.NET Framework (current version)
Gets or sets the amount of time that a write operation blocks waiting for data.
Assembly: System (in System.dll)
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| ArgumentOutOfRangeException | The value specified is less than or equal to zero and is not Infinite. |
If the write operation does not complete within the time specified by this property, the write operation throws a IOException.
Note |
|---|
This property affects only synchronous write operations performed by calling the Write method. This property does not affect asynchronous writes performed by calling the BeginWrite method. |
The following code example sets the write time-out for a network stream to 10 milliseconds.
using System; using System.Text; using System.Net; using System.Net.Sockets; namespace Examples.System.Net { public class TCPListenerExample { public static void Main() { // Create the server side connection and // start listening for clients. TcpListener tcpListener = new TcpListener(IPAddress.Any,11000); tcpListener.Start(); Console.WriteLine("Waiting for a connection...."); // Accept the pending client connection. TcpClient tcpClient = tcpListener.AcceptTcpClient(); Console.WriteLine("Connection accepted."); // Get the stream to write the message // that will be sent to the client. NetworkStream networkStream = tcpClient.GetStream(); string responseString = "Hello."; // Set the write timeout to 10 millseconds. networkStream.WriteTimeout = 10; // Convert the message to a byte array and sent it to the client. Byte[] sendBytes = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(responseString); networkStream.Write(sendBytes, 0, sendBytes.Length); Console.WriteLine("Message Sent."); // Close the connection to the client. tcpClient.Close(); // Stop listening for incoming connections // and close the server. tcpListener.Stop(); } } }
