A random aside: You might also look up "parameter sniffing" since you're using SQL Server, as well as the "WITH RECOMPILE" option. I lost a few hours of my life to discovering this "feature," where queries run through iBATIS mysteriously seem to take orders of magnitude longer than when run through Query Analyzer (since full table scans were getting triggered due to a poorly optimized execution plan), depending on what variables I "approached" the stored procedure or query with the first time I ran it. I'm no SQL guru, but it was essentially an optimization technique built into SQL Server that usually works, but borks in a really bad way when the planets don't align correctly.
http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.sqlserver.programming/msg/ff 9e6e72122e1fb (watch that long URL) is a good blurb about it. Otherwise, you should be able to set it in the connection string-that's the approach I used when poor parameter sniffing was causing certain queries to randomly explode. The configuration of your SQL Server can override that limit, however. If you're using iBATIS DAO, you could probably futz with the ADO.NET objects by implementing your own session handler, but you shouldn't have to do that. Good luck!

I've searched all over for this information and could only find this link, which appears specific to the Java implementation. http://opensource.atlassian.com/confluence/oss/display/IBATIS/Environment+Sp ecific+Information My problem is that long(ish)-running queries are timing out because IBatis seems to be using a default SqlCommand object (in this case I'm using the sqlServer2.0 provider). Is there either a way I can control this on a SQL statement level or at least increase the default timeout across the entire data source. I know that a Connection Timeout can be specified within the connection string itself, but this does not solve the issue. I could download the latest source and go hunting through the code to try and modify this, but was hoping someone could point me in the right direction before I start stabbing in the dark :-) Best Regards, Clyde
