Gio.Socket.set_blocking

### Method

# Gio Socketset_blocking

since: 2.22

#### Declaration

    void
    g_socket_set_blocking (
      GSocket* socket,
      gboolean blocking
    )

#### Description

Sets the blocking mode of the socket. In blocking mode all operations (which don’t take an explicit blocking parameter) block until they succeed or there is an error. In non-blocking mode all functions return results immediately or with a `G_IO_ERROR_WOULD_BLOCK` error.

All sockets are created in blocking mode. However, note that the platform level socket is always non-blocking, and blocking mode is a GSocket level feature.

Available since: 2.22
