Hi everyone, Earlier today I created a new jira issue [1] on something that I consider is a bug. It was triaged and marked as "Not a problem". I don't agree with this so I'm starting this discussion either to better understand why it's not a bug or to reopen it. I thought this mailing list was a better place for discussion than the comment section of a jira issue.
Let me explain what I did, what happened and what I was expected and why I was expecting this. Basically I forced the shutdown of a context that was processing a message. And by doing that I'm aware that I may lose some data, and it's my expected behavior. In the console, after the shutdown you can see that the DefaultTypeConverter is starting up and then an java.util.concurrent.RejectedExecutionException is thrown. But since the context is stopped, I don't want: * the TypeConverter to start, it has no meaning since I don't want to process any message and as far I can tell it's not cleared afterwards. * an exception telling me that it cannot process the message, since it's what I wanted I shouldn't have any exception. In more real-world use-case (not this bug simple reproduction use case), I noticed that after a force shutdown the context was still manipulating data which I didn't want before crashing In my opinion, if the context is stopping it should try to finish the in-processing messages. But if the context is stopped, it shouldn't try at all to continue. It may not be easy to stop the processing especially when it's asynchronous but camel should try to do so. Camel should not even try to go to the next processor and it shouldn't throw any exception when it cannot go to the next processor. But maybe I don't quite understand the force shutdown feature and this is not a bug. Can you give me your insights on this matter ? Thanks a lot, Antoine.
