SYNOPSIS

          void
          mongoc_cursor_set_max_await_time_ms (mongoc_cursor_t *cursor,
                                               uint32_t max_await_time_ms);

PARAMETERS

       • cursor: A mongoc_cursor_t.

       • max_await_time_ms: A timeout in milliseconds.

DESCRIPTION

       The  maximum  amount  of time for the server to wait on new documents to satisfy a tailable cursor query.
       Only applies if the  cursor  is  created  from  mongoc_collection_find_with_opts()  with  "tailable"  and
       "awaitData"  options, and the server is MongoDB 3.2 or later. See the documentation for maxTimeMS and the
       "getMore" command.

       The max_await_time_ms cannot be changed after the first call to mongoc_cursor_next().

       This is not applicable to all cursors. Calling mongoc_cursor_set_batch_size() on  a  cursor  returned  by
       mongoc_client_find_databases_with_opts(),         mongoc_database_find_collections_with_opts(),        or
       mongoc_collection_find_indexes_with_opts() will not change the results.

       Note: although max_await_time_ms is a uint32_t, it is possible to  set  it  as  a  uint64_t  through  the
       options arguments in some cursor returning functions like mongoc_collection_find_with_opts().
