#include <ne_session.h>
When neon reads from a socket, by default the read operation will time out after 60 seconds, and the request will fail giving an NE_TIMEOUT error. To configure this timeout interval, call ne_set_read_timeout giving the desired number of seconds as the timeout parameter.
When a connection is being established to a server, normally only the system's TCP timeout handling will apply. To configure a specific (and probably shorter) timeout, the ne_set_connect_timeout can be used, giving the desired number of seconds as the timeout parameter. If 0 is passed, then the default behaviour of using the system TCP timeout will be used.
The scheme used to initially create the session will be returned by ne_get_scheme.
The hostport pair with which the session is associated will be returned by the ne_get_server_hostport; for example www.example.com:8080. Note that the :port will be omitted if the default port for the scheme is used.
Set a user-agent string:
ne_session *sess = ne_session_create(...); ne_set_useragent(sess, "MyApplication/2.1");
Set a 30 second read timeout:
ne_session *sess = ne_session_create(...); ne_set_read_timeout(sess, 30);
ne_session_create, ne_set_session_flag.
