Specifying the Run-Time State for a Service
Configure run-time settings for a service in the Properties view.
*To configure a service’s run-time state
1. In the Package Navigator, open the service that you want to configure.
2. In the Run time category of the Properties view, do one of the following to set the Stateless property:
*If the service is a self-contained, atomic unit of work and does not need access to state information, select True. The server will remove the client session immediately after the service executes, and no session information will be maintained for the service.
*If the service is part of a multi-service transaction or if you are unsure of its state requirements, select False. The server will build and maintain a session object for this service.
Important:
Do not use the stateless option unless you are certain that the service operates as an atomic unit of work. If you are unsure, set the Stateless property in the Run time category to False.
3. Click File > Save.
