Hi,
we have a test suite for QuickFIX/J which runs (at least) every day. Sometimes I can observe that
there are BindExceptions because a port is already in use. Context: we stop and start an acceptor in
quick succession and it is expected that the port is already available again when the acceptor
starts the second time. To clean up all sessions and unbind we use the following code:
https://github.com/quickfix-j/quickfixj/blob/de63b0c1c4d41bf1b6ce1add5305890b81e1ad51/quickfixj-core/src/main/java/quickfix/mina/SessionConnector.java#L445-L471
IMHO this should be enough to free the port, however especially (or as I recall only) on MacOS the
BindException occurs every once in a while.
Question: I think this is some kind of race condition or glitch on MacOS. So it should be safe to
ignore it I guess?
Is there something I can do in the code to make sure that the port is really
unbound?
Thanks
Chris
