Class RelativeRequestTimeoutPolicy

public class RelativeRequestTimeoutPolicy extends _RelativeRequestTimeoutPolicyLocalBase

Specifies a relative timeout for a CORBA request. It is an upper bound for the time it may take for a request to get from the client to the server. The timeout does not include the time needed for getting the reply back to the client.

Constructor Detail

RelativeRequestTimeoutPolicy

public RelativeRequestTimeoutPolicy(Any value)

Constructs a new RelativeRequestTimeoutPolicy object from an Any value. This is the official CORBA way of constructing this policy (via orb.create_policy()), but JacORB also has a convenience constructor that directly takes the timeout value as a parameter.

Parameters: value an Any that contains the timeout as a CORBA "unsigned long long" value (use Any.insert_ulonglong()). The timeout is specified in CORBA time units (100 nanosecond resolution). If you have a value in milliseconds, multiply that by 10,000.

RelativeRequestTimeoutPolicy

public RelativeRequestTimeoutPolicy(long relative_expiry)

Convenience constructor for RelativeRequestTimeoutPolicy. This constructor is JacORB-specific, non-portable, but it allows you to create a policy object in a single line of code, rather than going via the ORB and stuffing the timeout value into an Any.

Parameters: relative_expiry the duration of this timeout, in CORBA time units (100 nanosecond resolution). If you have a value in milliseconds, multiply that by 10,000.
