Transaction.instance().setTransactionTimeout();

[pdhaigh]

Hi all,

I'm trying to force an increase to a transaction timeout within a particular method... I'm using this:

public void doScheduledSend(@Duration Long waitBeforeStart, @IntervalDuration Long interval)
 {

 log.info("Processing scheduled email tasks");

 try
 {
 Transaction.instance().setTransactionTimeout(100000);
 }
 catch (SystemException e1)
 {
 log.error("Oh dear", e1);
 }

 log.info("Set timeout");

but it appears not to have any effect. Clearly I'm missing something else?

My components xml contains:

<core:init jndi-pattern="wildfrontiers/#{ejbName}/local"/>

 <transaction:ejb-transaction/>

is that incorrect?

any help greatly appreciated!
