Get multiple database handles from pool with timeout

</a><h4>Syntax</h4>
<pre>    <a name="423739"></a>int Ns_DbPoolTimedGetMultipleHandles(
    <a name="423740"></a>Ns_DbHandle **handles,

    <a name="423744"></a>);
</pre><p><a name="423745">
</a><h4>Description</h4>
<p><a name="423746">
</a>The Ns_DbPoolTimedGetMultipleHandles function gets multiple database handles from the pool specified by <code>poolname</code> and returns an array of handles (<code>handles</code>). If all of the specified number of handles (<code>nhandles</code>) are not available, the function waits until they are, depending on <code>timeout</code>. If a <code>timeout</code> is not specified or <code>timeout</code> is zero, it will wait indefinitely (perhaps forever) for the handles to become available. If <code>timeout</code> is greater than zero, it will either return with the handles within that time period, or return "" if the time period was exceeded. If <code>timeout</code> is less than zero, it will not block.</p>
<p><a name="423747">
</a>It returns NS_OK if all requested handles are returned, NS_TIMEOUT if the attempt timed out, or NS_ERROR on an error condition. <i>You must request all the database handles you will need for a specific pool with one call to Ns_DbPoolTimedGetHandle (if you need only one handle) or Ns_DbPoolTimedGetMultipleHandles (if you need more than one handle). </i>You must release all your database handles explicitly (with Ns_DbPoolPutHandle) before acquiring more.</p>
