Sets the default time to live, the number of milliseconds from the time a message is sent to the time the JMS-provider 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.
