Namespace: Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Nmo
Assembly: Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo (in microsoft.sqlserver.smo.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Property ActionTimeout As TimeSpan
public TimeSpan ActionTimeout { get; set; }
public:
property TimeSpan ActionTimeout {
    TimeSpan get ();
    void set (TimeSpan value);
}
/** @property */
public TimeSpan get_ActionTimeout ()

/** @property */
public void set_ActionTimeout (TimeSpan value)
public function get ActionTimeout () : TimeSpan

public function set ActionTimeout (value : TimeSpan)

Property Value

A TimeSpan object that specifies the action timeout for the rule.

Remarks

When using the default constructor, you must set this property. When using the SubscriptionScheduledRule(SubscriptionClass,String) constructor, the default time-out is 30 minutes.

If an action does not complete in the time specified, the action is canceled and an error is recorded in the Microsoft Windows Application log.

Example

The following examples show how to define a scheduled rule and add it to a subscription class:

// Add a rule to generate basic scheduled notifications
SubscriptionScheduledRule flightScheduledRule = 
    new SubscriptionScheduledRule(
    flightSubscriptions, "FlightScheduledRule");
flightScheduledRule.Action = "INSERT INTO FlightNotifications " + 
    "(SubscriberId, DeviceName, SubscriberLocale, " +
    " LeavingFrom, GoingTo, Price) " + 
    " SELECT S.SubscriberId, S.DeviceName, S.SubscriberLocale, " +
    " EC.LeavingFrom, EC.GoingTo, EC.Price " + 
    " FROM FlightEventChronicle EC, FlightSubscriptions S " +
    " WHERE EC.LeavingFrom = S.LeavingFrom " + 
    " AND EC.GoingTo = S.GoingTo " +
    " AND EC.Price < S.Price";
flightScheduledRule.ActionTimeout = new TimeSpan(0, 0, 30);
flightSubscriptions.SubscriptionScheduledRules.Add(
    flightScheduledRule);
' Add a rule to generate basic scheduled notifications
Dim flightScheduledRule As SubscriptionScheduledRule = _
    New SubscriptionScheduledRule(flightSubscriptions, _
        "FlightScheduledRule")
flightScheduledRule.Action = _
    "INSERT INTO FlightNotifications " + _
    "(SubscriberId, DeviceName, SubscriberLocale, " + _
    "LeavingFrom, GoingTo, Price) " + _
    "SELECT S.SubscriberId, S.DeviceName, S.SubscriberLocale,  " + _
    "EC.LeavingFrom, EC.GoingTo, EC.Price " + _
    "FROM FlightEventChronicle EC, FlightSubscriptions S " + _
    "WHERE EC.LeavingFrom = S.LeavingFrom " + _
    "AND EC.GoingTo = S.GoingTo " + _
    "AND EC.Price < S.Price"
flightScheduledRule.ActionTimeout = New TimeSpan(0, 0, 30)
flightSubscriptions.SubscriptionScheduledRules.Add( _
    flightScheduledRule)
