The BlockingTimeout property specifies a timeout interval for resource requests that are blocked due to conflicting resource lock requests.
| Application Object | SQLServer Object |
object.BlockingTimeout [= value]
| Part | Description |
|---|---|
| object | Expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list |
| value | Long integer specifying a number of milliseconds |
For applications built with SQL-DMO, the default value for BlockingTimeout is 10,000 milliseconds (10 seconds).
The BlockingTimeout property determines the number of milliseconds waited when the SQL-DMO application needs sole access to a client resource. For the SQLServer object, the LoginTimeout and QueryTimeout properties control time-out behavior when an application request for a Microsoft® SQL Server™ resource is made.
An attempt to set the BlockingTimeout property to a negative value returns the setting to the default 10 seconds (10,000).
