Yes, when the task (in your case a loop) contained within a timer element
ends, the timer ends. A timer is used to control the maximum time that a
task can run before stopping the task at the end of the specified
duration. If the task completes before the duration time, then the timer
is ends (and the RC will be set to 0 indicating the task ended before the
specified duration).

Subject: [staf-users] Breaking out of the timer
Hi,
I have a very simple STAX job like this:
<timer duration="productTimeout">
<loop while="finished == 0">
….
<script>
finished = 1
</script>
…
</loop>
</timer>
I know “finished = 1” will break out of the loop statement, I was
wondering if “finished = 1” breaks out of the timer too? If no, how can I
jump out of the timer when “finished = 1”?
Thanks,
Cindy
