David I cannot find the use for semaphore in any document I can lay my hands on. I looked in ALL the files using a global search for "semaphore" as well as looking manually in framework\service\dtd\*.* and can find nothing.
I also re-read http://ofbiz.apache.org/docs/services.html Can you point me to another document I am missing? I would also think that searching the java files for semaphore would have turned up something. Is this something newer than 1Jan2008 as that is the last time I got a build.

In other words, you just specify how it should behave on the service definition. -David On Mar 10, 2008, at 8:54 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Can you point me to the entity name or how to call the service start? > Doesn't make much sense writing something new that already exists. > > Skip > > -----Original Message----- > From: David E Jones [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, March 10, 2008 6:38 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: Service Synchronization > > > > This feature already exists in the Service Engine, BTW. > > -David > > > On Mar 10, 2008, at 6:37 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > >> I have a few services that take from 4 to 8 hours to complete with >> the large data sets I am dealing with.
