Pass a long. It should contain the maximum time in seconds that you allow the
connection to the server to take. This only limits the connection phase, once
it has connected, this option is of no more use. Set to zero to disable
connection timeout (it will then only timeout on the system's internal
timeouts). See also the \fICURLOPT_TIMEOUT\fP option.
it has connected, this option is of no more use. Set to zero to switch to the
default built-in connection timeout - 300 seconds. See also the
\fICURLOPT_TIMEOUT\fP option.
In unix-like systems, this might cause signals to be used unless
\fICURLOPT_NOSIGNAL\fP is set.
