I have a .NET object living inside a COM+ app for object pooling and impersonation. The pool has 6 minimum and 6 maximum objects in it,and the timeout is 3 seconds. I created a multithreaded console app to throw 8 randomly-timed requests at the server object. If the pool is all used, and the server object blocks, I get the error
" System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x8004E024): COM+ activation failed because the activation could ot be completed in the specified amount of time. " What is a good way for callers to wait-and-retry? It seems like conventional try/catch logic won't cut it in this case. Can anyone recommend something recursive? Thanks.
