WorkflowServiceHost.OnClose(TimeSpan) Method

Definition

Namespace:

System.ServiceModel.Activities

Assembly:

System.ServiceModel.Activities.dll

Closes down the hosted service, including the channel dispatchers and associated instance contexts and listeners.

protected:
 override void OnClose(TimeSpan timeout);

protected override void OnClose (TimeSpan timeout);

override this.OnClose : TimeSpan -> unit

Protected Overrides Sub OnClose (timeout As TimeSpan)

Parameters

timeout

TimeSpan

The period of time the close operation has to complete before timing out.

Remarks

The workflow runtime will try to persist any hosted workflow when OnClose is called, but persistence is not guaranteed in this scenario. If important business data is being hosted, the instances should persist frequently (such as after each Send operation, or after an interval of time) to ensure that data is not lost.
