CURLOPT_TIMEOUT is nothing to do with how long you want to keep your connection. Setting this value makes your curl_easy_perform() return with an error if your server doesn’t respond within the specified timeout period. But be aware that your server may have idle timeout which might close your connection if it connection remains idle for long time.

I can use CURLOPT_TIMEOUT function to set the timeout.
But my requirement is if i post a request and got a response, i will use the same connection
and post a query later any time(no time limit)
In this case will it help me?

Yes to both. Read the curl_easy_setopt man page to find out how.

Is there anyway to abort or set timeout if there are no response for long time.
