MessageQueue.MaximumJournalSize Property

.NET Framework 4

Other Versions

Gets or sets the maximum size of the journal queue.

Namespace: System.Messaging
Assembly: System.Messaging (in System.Messaging.dll)

Syntax

C++

Copy

[MessagingDescriptionAttribute("MQ_MaximumJournalSize")]
public long MaximumJournalSize { get; set; }

Property Value

Type: System.Int64
The maximum size, in kilobytes, of the journal queue. The Message Queuing default specifies that no limit exists.

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
ArgumentException	The maximum journal queue size was set to an invalid value.
MessageQueueException	An error occurred when accessing a Message Queuing method.

Remarks

MaximumJournalSize provides access to the Message Queuing journal storage limit. It is relevant only when UseJournalQueue is true. Setting this property modifies the Message Queuing queue. Therefore, any other MessageQueue instances are affected by the change

If you store messages in a journal or dead-letter queue, you should periodically clear the queue to remove messages that are no longer needed. Messages in such a queue count toward the message quota for the computer where the queue resides. (The administrator sets the computer quota.)

The following table shows whether this property is available in various Workgroup modes.

Workgroup mode	Available
Local computer	Yes
Local computer and direct format name	Yes
Remote computer	No
Remote computer and direct format name	No

Examples

The following code example gets and sets the value of a message queue's MaximumJournalSize property.

Copy


// Set the queue's MaximumJournalSize property value.
queue.MaximumJournalSize = 10;

// Display the new value of the queue's MaximumJournalSize property.
Console.WriteLine("MessageQueue.MaximumJournalSize: {0}",
    queue.MaximumJournalSize);
