visibility timeout on retrive seems to be ignored

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi, 
I am specifying a visibility timeout of 300 when invoking
MessageQueue.receive(300), however I keep getting the same messages
returned, seems like it is ignored... typica 0.8 is being used.... 
is this a known issue? 

the default queue timeout is however 0 - but this should be overwritten
with my attempt - is this assumption correct?

thanks, 

flo

You are correct in assuming the value passed in receiveMessage(int) should 
override
the queue default. I've been using that in my own application. 300 seconds 
should be
long enough to keep it hidden from subsequent reads. Are you getting the same 
message
ids on the messages? Have you run a simple case where there is only one message 
in
the queue so there is no chance of another message fooling you?
I've attached a file that is in subversion. It was my test for the visibility
timeout. have a look and try running it.

to clarify, i am actually "trying" to retrieve an array of messages of size 10 
- and
I set the default visibility timeout of the queue to 300... 

Thanks

Thanks Dave, the previous post (when trying to get one message) actually worked,
there was a bug in my code... however I am fairly certain that the
receiveMessages(int num) doesn't: 

I get the same message id returned multiple times... 

thanks

Flo,
I want to make sure this issues is resolved, or that I can fix something if 
there is
something I can fix. To clarify, all receive message calls get funneled through 
the
same receiveMessages(BigInt, BitInt) call. I saw you asking about the default
visibility timeout for a queue. That is set to 30 seconds (per the developer's 
guide).

This turned out not to be a bug in the typica code. Closing this out.
