How do I set timeout settings in C#?

You can set timeout settings in C# using the HttpClient class or by configuring the CommandTimeout property in Entity Framework.

Can you show me an example using HttpClient?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

using System;
using System.Net.Http;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

class Program
{
    static async Task Main()
    {
        using (var client = new HttpClient())
        {
            client.Timeout = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(10);
            try
            {
                var response = await client.GetAsync("https://example.com");
                response.EnsureSuccessStatusCode();
                Console.WriteLine("Request succeeded!");
            }
            catch (TaskCanceledException)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("Request timed out.");
            }
        }
    }
}

What if I want to set a timeout for a database command?

You can set the timeout for a database command in Entity Framework like this:

using (var context = new YourDbContext())
{
    context.Database.CommandTimeout = 30; // Timeout in seconds
    // Your database operations here
}
