Set a time period for the response

To protect against remote server failure or unavailability, set a timeout value that indicates how long you are willing to wait for the server to respond to your request.

Use the SetOption() method of the WebServiceEngine class to set the readwritetimeout option.

For example, to wait no more than 10 seconds:

CALL com.WebServiceEngine.SetOption( "readwritetimeout", 10 )

A timeout value of -1 means "wait forever". This is the default value.
