Emmanuel Lecharny commented on DIRSTUDIO-1209:
----------------------------------------------
The key here is that we don't check the connection status periodically. Once
it's connected, it turns yellow (instead of grey) and remains so until you
disconnect the connection manually. If you try an operation on a disconnected
connection, then Studio will reconnect first.
What would be helpful is for the connection to turn grey when it's disconnected
either by the server (NoticeOfDisconnect received, or by any other mean), or
because of a timeout. The {{NoD}} is manageable, for the timeout, that would
require some additional work in Studio.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSTUDIO-1209
> Project: Directory Studio
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: studio-connection
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0-M14
> Reporter: Philip Brown
> Priority: Minor
>
> Reguardless of whether a connection is open or closed, the name+icon does not
> change in any way. There is no highlight, or color change, jor ANYTHING to
> indicate if the connection is live or not.
> Yes, if you individually click on each one, you can notice the separate
> open/close icon states. But that is bad interface design, especially if you
> have many connections defined.
