This method sets the maximum time the task can run, in milliseconds, before terminating.
A DWORD value that specifies the maximum run time (in milliseconds), for the task. This parameter may be set to INFINITE to specify an unlimited time.
The SetMaxRunTime method returns one of the following values.
| Return code | Description |
|---|---|
|
The operation was successful. |
|
The arguments are not valid. |
|
Not enough memory is available. |
When the maximum run time is exceeded, the Task Scheduler attempts to terminate the application associated with the task. If a WM_CLOSE message cannot be sent (for example, the application has no windows) or the application has not exited within three minutes of the receiving WM_CLOSE, the Task Scheduler terminates the application using TerminateProcess.
After setting the maximum run time, be sure to call IPersistFile::Save to save the modified task object to disk.
For an example of how to set the maximum run time, see C/C++ Code Example: Setting MaxRunTime.
