Gets or sets the maximum number of channels a service can have waiting on a listener for processing incoming connections to the service.

public:
 property int MaxPendingAccepts { int get(); void set(int value); };

public int MaxPendingAccepts { get; set; }

member this.MaxPendingAccepts : int with get, set

Public Property MaxPendingAccepts As Integer

Property Value

Int32

The maximum number of channels a service can have waiting on a listener. The default value is 2 * number of processors.

Exceptions

ArgumentOutOfRangeException

The value is less than or equal to zero.

Remarks

This property limits the number of channels that the server can have waiting on a listener. When MaxPendingAccepts is too low, there will be a small interval of time in which all of the waiting channels have started servicing connections, but no new channels have begun listening. A connection can arrive during this interval and will fail because nothing is waiting for it on the server. This property can be configured by setting the MaxPendingConnections property to a larger number.
