IExecutionContext.Depth Property
[Applies to: Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 and Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online]
Assembly: Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk (in Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.dll)
Gets the current depth of execution in the call stack. Namespace: Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk
Assembly: Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk (in Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.dll)
Used by the platform for infinite loop prevention. In most cases, this property can be ignored.
Every time a running plug-in or Workflow issues a message request to the Web services that triggers another plug-in or Workflow to execute, the Depth property of the execution context is increased. If the depth property increments to its maximum value within the configured time limit, the platform considers this behavior an infinite loop and further plug-in or Workflow execution is aborted. The maximum depth (8) and time limit (one hour) are configurable by the Microsoft Dynamics CRM administrator.
Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
