mutapath.lock_dummy.DummyFileLock.timeout¶

property DummyFileLock.timeout[source]¶

You can set a default timeout for the filelock. It will be used as fallback value in the acquire method, if no timeout value (None) is given.

If you want to disable the timeout, set it to a negative value.

A timeout of 0 means, that there is exactly one attempt to acquire the file lock.
