Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Development:
Messaging and ESB

setDefaultTimeToLive procedure

Sets the default time to live, the number of milliseconds from the time a message is sent to the time the SonicMQ Broker can delete the message from the system.

Syntax

PROCEDURE setDefaultTimeToLive. DEFINE INPUT PARAMETER millis AS DECIMAL.

Applies to

Session objects

Notes

A setting of 0 specifies that the message never expires.
The default is JMS-broker-dependent; the SonicMQ default value is 0.
Any fractional part of the decimal value is truncated.
If the value does not fit in a Java long value, Java rules for decimal-to-long conversions are used.
Setting an Unknown value (?) has no effect.
