DefaultSettingsSection Class
Represents an XML section in a configuration file that contains default values of a transaction. This class cannot be inherited.
Assembly: System.Transactions (in System.Transactions.dll)
An example configuration file used by your transaction application can be as follows,
<configuration>
<system.transactions>
<defaultSettings distributedTransactionManagerName="F04M25" timeout="02:00:00"/>
<machineSettings maxTimeout="02:00:00"/>
</system.transactions>
</configuration>
This example specifies the default values of a transaction. Specifically, it sets the the computer name of the Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MSDTC) that is responsible for coordinating all distributed transactions started locally, and the default time after which a transaction times out. In addition, it specifies a setting that can only be modified at the machine level, which is the maximum amount of time allowed before a transaction times out.
