             Summary: qmf.client.BrokerAgent does not provide reconnect support
                 Key: QPID-7847
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-7847
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: QMF
            Reporter: Alan Conway
            Assignee: Alan Conway


[Moved from PROTON-1511]

The BrokerAgent is provided by this diff:  https://reviews.apache.org/r/52280/diff/3#0  Here is how to reproduce:

1. Instantiate a BrokerAgent connecting to a qpidd broker
2. Do something with the connected BrokerAgent object to show that it's working
3. kill qpidd with `pkill -9 -f qpidd`
4. start qpidd up again
5. Try to do step 2 again
6. Receive a traceback indicating the BrokerAgent is disconnected

My code handles reconnect support for the connection, but it's not prepared to also handle reconnect support for the BrokerAgent connection. I would like that connection to have a reconnect support option added so I can call it like:

BrokerAgent(**existing_options, reconnect=True)

Having reconnect default to True is also fine w/ me. I think users may still want the option to set it also.
