Child elements

None.

Remarks

The ChronicleName value should be the same as the chronicle table name as defined in the related SqlSchema element.

Important

If you update the ChronicleName value, updating the application re-creates the subscription class to which it corresponds. SQL Server 2005 Notification Services renames existing subscription tables by appending "Old" to the name and then creates new subscription tables. Existing subscription table indexes remain unchanged. If you want to transfer data between the old and new subscription tables, it must be done manually. For more information, see Updating an Application.

Example

The following example shows a populated ChronicleName element.

<ChronicleName>StockSubscriptionChron</ChronicleName>
