SQLConnection.connectiontimeout

[cj]

MySQLConnection .connectiontime out() returns 15. I want to drop that to
3, but it is read only. I see you can include the timeout "Connection
Timeout=30" as part of the connection string but I don't necessarily
want it at 3 during the connection--just for queries. Is there a way to
set it after I'm connected or for it not to affect the connection process?

RE: SQLConnection.c onnectiontimeou t

Hi Cj,

As for the SqlConnection's Timeout setting, it should be configured through
the "Connection Timeout" attribute in connectionstrin g, after the
SqlConnection object is created, that property is readonly.

#SqlConnection. ConnectionTimeo ut Property
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/lib....sqlconnection
..connectiontim eout.aspx

However, if what you want to do is restrict the timeout period of a certain
query or update command's execution, you should use use
SqlCommand.Comm andTimeout property to control the command execution timeout:

#SqlCommand.Com mandTimeout Property
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/lib....sqlcommand.co
mmandtimeout(VS .80).aspx

Also, to make use of this CommandTimeout, you need to turn off "Context
Connection" in the connectionstrin g(as indicated in the above reference).

Sincerely,

Steven Cheng
