Question

I realized that I haven’t set the time out for the JDBCTemplate using the setQueryTimeOut method. My code is in production as I would ideally want a solution to set the timeout from some configuration instead of recompiling the code. Is there a way to set the query time out via say the data source configuration or any other property outside the Java.

I tried via the accepted solution to this post. Didn’t work for me. I get org.springframework.beans.NotWritablePropertyException: Invalid property 'connectionProperties' of bean class

You can use the queryTimeout field with configuration:

1. In your JDBCTempalte xml – <property name="queryTimeout" value="${query.timeout} />
2. Use a PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer to load properties from a .properties file on the classpath. The easiest way is through <context:property-placeholder location=".." />
3. Add the query.timeout=x in your .properties files
