cannot set timeout

[theAtheA]

In the pre 1.0 client version there was a way to set the client timeout. In the current version there is no public api to override/set the timeout. Could you please reintroduce this feature.
The PrebidMobile class already contains a timeout feature, but it's not public.

Hi @theAtheA, I will bring this topic back up within the Prebid org. This was talked about some time ago and it may warrant further discussion.

@theAtheA , indeed the field should be public. I guess a small typo as be made as public is used for the variable which is useless as also declared as final. Here is the PR for the fix: #112

For information you can use below code as workaround:

    try {
        Field timeoutMillisField = PrebidMobile.class.getDeclaredField("timeoutMillis");
        timeoutMillisField.setAccessible(true);
        timeoutMillisField.set(null, 3000);
    } catch (NoSuchFieldException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (IllegalAccessException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

As a note: My colleage requested the reimplementation for the same feature in the iOS sdk and it was already discussed and implemented there.
