Re: Specifying a timeout value for createTopicConnection() method

Hi Joe,

Thank you for your reply. Sorry it took me such a long time to reply. 

We're using 5.2 version. And, Yes, we use failover transports. Do you think
the use of failover transport make it hang under this situation ? Any
suggestions how to avoid it while keeping failover transports ?

Thank you very much.

Re: Specifying a timeout value for createTopicConnection() method

Yes, you can use the following options (default values provided) to control
the failover transport connector. 

initialReconnectDelay = 10;
maxReconnectDelay = 1000 * 30;
backOffMultiplier = 2;
useExponentialBackOff = true;
maxReconnectAttempts; //indefinite reconnect attempts

In this example, the failover will try 5 times to connect to the broker,
then returns control to the client by throwing an exception if it cannot
connect. 

failover://(tcp://localhost:61616)?maxReconnectAttempts=5
