.SH SYNOPSIS

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The \fBwaitblockheight\fR RPC command waits until the blockchain
|
|
|
|
has reached the specified \fIblockheight\fR\.
|
|
|
|
It will only wait up to \fItimeout\fR seconds (default 60)\.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the \fIblockheight\fR is a present or past block height, then this
|
|
|
|
command returns immediately\.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.SH RETURN VALUE
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Once the specified block height has been achieved by the blockchain,
|
|
|
|
an object with the single field \fIblockheight\fR is returned, which is
|
|
|
|
the block height at the time the command returns\.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If \fItimeout\fR seconds is reached without the specified blockheight
|
|
|
|
being reached, this command will fail\.
