Article

Retrieves or sets the maximum time that the application will wait for a response from the cluster when making synchronous calls.

Namespace: Microsoft.ComputeCluster
Assembly: CcpAPI (in ccpapi.dll)

Usage

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Property Timeout As Integer

public int Timeout { get; set; }

public:
virtual property int Timeout {
    int get () sealed;
    void set (int value) sealed;
}

/** @property */
public final int get_Timeout ()

/** @property */
public final void set_Timeout (int value)

public final function get Timeout () : int

public final function set Timeout (value : int)

Property Value

The time to wait, in milliseconds. To wait indefinitely (the default), set this value to 0 or -1 (infinite).

Remarks

Synchronous calls to the cluster wait indefinitely. This can be an issue if the cluster is under heavy load and your application cannot appear to stop responding, or "hang." This property limits the time to wait before method calls return. When the time-out expires, the call fails and sets Cluster.ErrorMessage.

Thread Safety
