How to ensure that cometd performs a rehandshake for TimeoutException scenario ?

[inspire99]

CometD version(s) 3.1.3

Java version & vendor (use: java -version) Java 1.8

Question There are scenarios when META_HANDSHAKE or META_CONNECT or META_SUBSCRIBE fails, due to TimeoutException, and the bayeuxClient is terminated.

Is it possible to configure the behavior, to never terminate the bayeuxClient, under these circumstances ?

That is already the current behavior: BayeuxClient enters a loop where it retries /meta/connect and then /meta/handshake.
It is not terminated.

If you see otherwise, then it's something else, probably the server asking the client to terminate, so it's an application behavior.

@sbordet , Is there a easy way to reproduce TimeOutException for META_HANDSHAKE or META_CONNECT ?
For example, recently I tried disconnecting from WiFi, I got NoRouteToHostException and UnknownHostException.

I am looking for scenarios, as to how to reproduce TimeOutException.

Could you please share ?
Thank you.

You should set HttpClient.idleTimeout to a small value like 1000 (1 second) or so.
