.SH "NAME"
sd_bus_set_method_call_timeout, sd_bus_get_method_call_timeout \- Set or query the default D\-Bus method call timeout of a bus object

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBsd_bus_set_method_call_timeout()\fR
sets the default D\-Bus method call timeout of
\fIbus\fR
to
\fIusec\fR
microseconds\&.
.PP
\fBsd_bus_get_method_call_timeout()\fR
queries the default D\-Bus method call timeout of
\fIbus\fR\&. If no method call timeout was set using
\fBsd_bus_set_method_call_timeout()\fR, the timeout is read from the
\fI$SYSTEMD_BUS_TIMEOUT\fR
environment variable\&. If this environment variable is unset or does not contain a valid timeout, the implementation falls back to a predefined method call timeout of 25 seconds\&. Note that
\fI$SYSTEMD_BUS_TIMEOUT\fR
is read once and cached so callers should not rely on being able to change the default method call timeout at runtime by changing the value of
\fI$SYSTEMD_BUS_TIMEOUT\fR\&. Instead, call
\fBsd_bus_set_method_call_timeout()\fR
to change the default method call timeout\&.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.PP
On success, these functions return a non\-negative integer\&. On failure, they return a negative errno\-style error code\&.
.SS "Errors"
.PP
Returned errors may indicate the following problems:
.PP
\fB\-EINVAL\fR
.RS 4
The parameters
\fIbus\fR
or
\fIret\fR
are
\fBNULL\fR\&.

.SH "NOTES"

These APIs are implemented as a shared library, which can be compiled and linked to with the
\fBlibsystemd\fR\ \&\fBpkg-config\fR(1)
