Timeout after which the container start/stop is deemed failed

This feature is only available for local containers

Explanation

Cargo has a timeout for container start and stop operations. If the time taken to start/stop a container exceeds the timeout period the operations is considered failed and the container is then set in the unknown state.

The default timeout value is 2 minutes (120000 milliseconds). This value can be modified as shown below.

Example using the Java API

LocalContainer container = ...;
container.setTimeout(180000L);
System.out.println("Timeout = " + container.getTimeout());

Example using the Maven 2 plugin

<container>
  [...]
  <timeout>180000</timeout>
  [...]
</container>

Disabling timeout

As of CARGO version 1.0.2, if you set the timeout to 0, CARGO will not wait for the container to start or stop.
