Members
ulTimeout
This parameter limits the duration of the transaction and therefore bounds the amount of time that locks are held on database records and system resources. If the time-out period expires before the transaction commits, the DTC automatically aborts the transaction. The time-out is specified in milliseconds. A time-out value of zero indicates no time-out.
szDescription
A textual description for a transaction. The description is displayed by the DTC administration tool in the DTC Transactions window. The description is meaningful only to the DTC administrator and is not processed or interpreted by the DTC itself.
Requirements
For an explanation of the requirement values, see Requirements (Component Services).
