Hello,

I am using TimeOut nodes in controlled way to retry SOAP request after SocketException or SocketTimeoutException untill configured max retry attempt is reached, or the SOAP Request is sent successfully; which ever is first.

In this process I see the Environment tree is lost when message is coming out of TimeOut Notification node.

Is this is a expected behaviour ? I don't see any specification of Environment tree in infocentre in this regard.

When I am sending the TimeoutRequest again to the same Timeout control node, using the same code (as mentioned below) this time, no message is coming out of the TimeoutNotification node. I am getting exception from Failure terminal of TimeOutNotification node with BIP4619.

Code:
   SET OutputLocalEnvironment.TimeoutRequest.Action      = 'SET';
   SET OutputLocalEnvironment.TimeoutRequest.Identifier   = 'TMC_Retry';
   SET OutputLocalEnvironment.TimeoutRequest.StartDate      = 'TODAY';
   SET OutputLocalEnvironment.TimeoutRequest.StartTime      = CURRENT_TIME + CAST(IN_TimeOut_Interval AS INTERVAL SECOND);
   SET OutputLocalEnvironment.TimeoutRequest.Count         = 1;
   SET OutputLocalEnvironment.TimeoutRequest.IgnoreMissed   = TRUE;
   SET OutputLocalEnvironment.TimeoutRequest.AllowOverwrite = 'TRUE';


WMB - 7.0.0.5 Presently trying in Wndows 7
Would you please guide me where I am doing any wrong?

The LocalEnvironment is not lost. You should be using Environment.Variables tree to store variables that you want to have a life longer than a few nodes. You should use V8 and Global Cache if you want variables to live longer than one flow.

Also, you may want to reconsider your approach. Soap nodes have their own timeout value and if your choice is to retry, then you should arrange to do so in your handler; not a timeout node.

TimeoutNotification node starts an entirely new message thread.

Nothing that is defined in Environment or LocalEnvironment is available outside the message thread that is using it.

This is basic understanding of TimeoutNotification node and Message Flow development.

Thanks jeff for the response.. Now I understand why existing Environment variables tree is lost after timeout node...

Still don't understand why same TimeoutRequest code is working fine first time and generating thread, however next time it says failure..

Add a Trace node before your TimeoutControl node and trace at least:

${Root}
==========
${LocalEnvironment}


to check that your two calls to create the Timeout are in fact identical.

Any flow specific information that you want in the newly generated message from TIMEOUT notification should have... you can pass on through MQRFH2 header usr folder

I am using that trick Akankha !!

It was just weird for me to loose Environment at the first hand. I hadn't thought about new thread.


I have connected trace node before the control node and couldn't found any difference. Not posting result here because I have quite big usr filder structure within MQRFH2.

I am in a doubt of using these within a sub-flow (currently doing). I'll take out these nodes out of sub-flow and would see if there is any difference.

Thanks a lot for your help.

I take out the logic out of subflow - but no good luck.

Local Environment trace :
Code:

Current Time : 2013-06-13 22:02:45.174045

=============================

( ['MQROOT' : 0x1415c158]
  (0x01000000:Name):TimeoutRequest = (
    (0x03000000:NameValue):Action         = 'SET' (CHARACTER)
    (0x03000000:NameValue):Identifier     = 'TMC_Retry' (CHARACTER)
    (0x03000000:NameValue):StartDate      = 'TODAY' (CHARACTER)
    (0x03000000:NameValue):StartTime      = TIME '22:02:50.173668' (TIME)
    (0x03000000:NameValue):Count          = 1 (INTEGER)
    (0x03000000:NameValue):IgnoreMissed   = TRUE (BOOLEAN)
    (0x03000000:NameValue):AllowOverwrite = 'TRUE' (CHARACTER)
  )
)



*******************Iteration***********************
Current Time : 2013-06-13 22:02:51.355911

=============================

( ['MQROOT' : 0x19576c28]
  (0x01000000:Name):TimeoutRequest = (
    (0x03000000:NameValue):Action         = 'SET' (CHARACTER)
    (0x03000000:NameValue):Identifier     = 'TMC_Retry' (CHARACTER)
    (0x03000000:NameValue):StartDate      = 'TODAY' (CHARACTER)
    (0x03000000:NameValue):StartTime      = TIME '22:02:56.355428' (TIME)
    (0x03000000:NameValue):Count          = 1 (INTEGER)
    (0x03000000:NameValue):IgnoreMissed   = TRUE (BOOLEAN)
    (0x03000000:NameValue):AllowOverwrite = 'TRUE' (CHARACTER)
  )
)



*******************Iteration***********************


After 2 time, message is going out of Failure terminal of TimeOut notification node. Error details followed.

@ghoshly...even i too am facing the same issue in our project.....

when we are taking trace of properties before timeout control node we can see that the reply protocol is at first set to 'MQ' in whihc case message comes out sucesfully out of timer notificaiotn node. Next time the reply protocol is unknown and message comes out of the failure terminal of timer notificaiton node. Hope this finding helps.
