# fpSetExtractionTimeout()

This function specifies the length of time that should elapse before assuming that out-of-process extraction has stopped responding.

## Syntax

    BOOL pascal fpSetExtractionTimeout( void *pContext,
    long lTimeout );

## Arguments

`pContext` | A pointer returned from `fpInit()` or `fpInitWithLicenseData()`.
`lTimeout` | The length of time, in seconds, that must elapse before assuming that out-of-process extraction has stopped responding.

## Returns

- If the call is successful, the return value is `TRUE`.

- If the call is unsuccessful, the return value is `FALSE`.

## Discussion

If this API is not used in out-of-process mode, the filter timeout duration is used on the fpOpenFile() call. See fpSetTimeout().

## Example

    /* set extraction timeouts to 10 minutes */

    if (FALSE == extractInterface->fpSetExtractionTimeout(pContext, 600))
    {
       /* could not set the extraction timeout */
    }
