Reviewing the .NET 1.1 documentation we can see that:

* SqlClient, Odbc and OleDb providers has CommandTimeout, none of them
throws
exception

* OracleClient doesn't have CommandTimeout property as public, it
will be accesible making explicit usage of the IDbCommand interface:

    ((IDbCommand)oracommand).CommandTimeout = 10;

Making that doesn't throw exception.

That from the Microsft providers, from the opensource ones for other RDBMS,
there are at least one that throws exception.

I think that probably the best will be to make the same as the OracleClient
provider.


Opinions ??
