How to stop retries

[slprogrp]

Hi there,

I have a scenario where I need to say if the server can not be found, then use a different mode. So I publish a message when the page loads and handle the transport:up and transport:down events. I set a flag to say if transport is up or down based on which event gets raised. If transport:down is raised I start a timer and when the timer executes if the transport is not up, I need to stop trying to reach the server. I am calling:

client.disconnect();
client.disable();
client = null;

But that first message that was published keeps retrying over and over for ages.
How can I get Faye to stop trying that message?

Thanks for your time.

The transport:{up,down} events are informational and should not be used to drive business logic, especially not for delivery correctness. You should take a look at the scheduler docs which explain how to override how deliveries and retries work.
