Problem
A command sent from Object Explorer timeouts after a few seconds. But my command would need more time.
Solution
Object Explore by default has a timeout of 5 seconds per each command sent.
On one side, we do not want the Object Explorer to wait forever for the completion of a command.
On the other side, we think that a command should return feedback to the caller very soon. Longer operations should be handled with asynchronous commands.
Therefore 5 seconds is in out opinion a reasonable limit for most normal situations.
It is in any case possible to configure the timeout for commands sent by the Object Explorer by using the Java property:
-Dobjexp.pool_timeout__ in millisecon
You can therefore start Object Explorer with the following command line:
objexp -Dobjexp.pool_timeout=<timeout ms>
Where a value of 0 means wait forever.
For more details see the Object Explorer user manual:
