NAME¶

libssh2_keepalive_config - short function description

SYNOPSIS¶

#include <libssh2.h>

void libssh2_keepalive_config(LIBSSH2_SESSION *session,


                              int want_reply,


                              unsigned interval);

DESCRIPTION¶

Set how often keepalive messages should be sent. want_reply indicates whether the keepalive messages should request a response from the server. interval is number of seconds that can pass without any I/O, use 0 (the default) to disable keepalives. To avoid some busy-loop corner-cases, if you specify an interval of 1 it will be treated as 2.

Note that non-blocking applications are responsible for sending the keepalive messages using libssh2_keepalive_send(3).

RETURN VALUE¶

Nothing
