CloudQueueClient.ApproximateMessageCountCacheLength Property

Storage Client Library NET API

[This topic is part of the Microsoft Azure Storage Client Library 1.7, which has been deprecated. See Storage Client Library for the latest version.]

Gets or sets the lifetime of the approximate message count cache.

Namespace: Microsoft.WindowsAzure.StorageClient
Assembly: Microsoft.WindowsAzure.StorageClient (in Microsoft.WindowsAzure.StorageClient.dll)

Usage

Visual Basic
Dim instance As CloudQueueClient
Dim value As TimeSpan

value = instance.ApproximateMessageCountCacheLength

instance.ApproximateMessageCountCacheLength = value

Syntax

Visual Basic
<ObsoleteAttribute("The approximate message count cache is obsolete. Use FetchAttributes to refresh the approximate message count as needed.")> _
Public Property ApproximateMessageCountCacheLength As TimeSpan
C#
[ObsoleteAttribute("The approximate message count cache is obsolete. Use FetchAttributes to refresh the approximate message count as needed.")] 
public TimeSpan ApproximateMessageCountCacheLength { get; set; }
C++
[ObsoleteAttribute(L"The approximate message count cache is obsolete. Use FetchAttributes to refresh the approximate message count as needed.")] 
public:
property TimeSpan ApproximateMessageCountCacheLength {
	TimeSpan get ();
	void set (TimeSpan value);
}
J#
JScript

Property Value

Type: System.TimeSpan

The lifetime of the approximate message count cache.

Remarks

This method is obsolete. Use FetchAttributes instead.

This value determines how often the cache for the queue's approximate message count is refreshed. By default the lifetime of the cache is TimeSpan.Zero, and the approximate message count value is updated from the service each time the RetrieveApproximateMessageCount method is called.

Setting this value to a non-zero TimeSpan can improve performance if you are checking the approximate message count value frequently.


Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
