The following code example implements the Timeout property of the IHttpSessionState interface to get and set the session timeout value that is stored in an internal variable created in the class constructor.

public int Timeout
{
  get { return pTimeout; }
  set
  {
    if (value <= 0)
      throw new ArgumentException("Timeout value must be greater than zero.");

    if (value > MAX_TIMEOUT)
      throw new ArgumentException("Timout cannot be greater than " + MAX_TIMEOUT.ToString());

    pTimeout = value;
  }
}

Public Property Timeout As Integer Implements IHttpSessionState.Timeout
  Get
    Return pTimeout
  End Get
  Set
    If value <= 0 Then _
      Throw New ArgumentException("Timeout value must be greater than zero.")

    If value > MAX_TIMEOUT Then _
      Throw New ArgumentException("Timout cannot be greater than " & MAX_TIMEOUT.ToString())

    pTimeout = value
  End Set
End Property
