Make a DAD time-out

Question

We are currently running 9iAS 1.0.2.1 on Solaris.
We have a link from our portal that we want to expire after 10 minutes of use. We figured we could configure a special DAD to time-out after that period, but it does not appear that this is an option. Am I missing something? Has anyone done anything like this?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Checking out how to time out the connection would be the best practice as said already, but for the purpose of providing an example of one way to time out a method, you could look at the following;
1. Create a Runnable class to perform your queries, and another Runnable class responsible for interrupting the first Runnable after a specified time.
public class WorkerThread implements Runnable
                private String query;
     public WorkerThread(String query)
          this.query = query;
     public void run()
          Thread thread = new Thread(new TimerThread(30000));
          thread.start();
          try
               // INSERT CODE TO SUBMIT YOUR QUERY
               thread.interrupt();
          catch(Exception e)
               e.printStackTrace();
public class TimerThread implements Runnable
     private long sleepTime;
     private Thread parent;
     public TimerThread(long sleepTime)
          this.sleepTime = sleepTime;
          this.parent = Thread.currentThread();
     // Run
     public void run()
          try
               Thread.sleep(sleepTime);
               parent.interrupt();
          catch(Exception e)
}2. Run the first Runnable for each query within your method, and join the threads to it
for-loop
    //query1
    //query2
    //query3
    //query4
    Thread t1 = new Thread(new WorkerThread(query1));
    t1.start();
    t1.join();
    Thread t2 = new Thread(new WorkerThread(query1));
    t2.start();
    t2.join();
    etc...
    do more stuff
}
