> When doing HA testing we found that our application often crashed inside the 
> Qpid Messaging library.
> Our test:
> * One ActiveMQ broker.
> * Two proxies connecting to the AMQP port on the broker. At the start, only 
> one of the proxies are running.
> * Test program configured to use failover between the two proxies. Protocol 
> is "amqp1.0". It reads messages in a loop using a transactional session. On 
> error it closes the connection and opens a new.
> * Three queues are read from in parallel, each reader using its own 
> connection in a thread. Nothing is shared between the threads in the client 
> code.
> * Send some messages and let the test program process them.
> * Stop proxy1 and start proxy2.
> * Send some more messages and let the test program process them.
> * Stop proxy2 and start proxy1.
> * And so on...
> After a couple of switches the test program crashes, but not always. It's a 
> timing thing.
> A typical error message that we see before the crash:
> {noformat}
> Exception when trying to close the qpid connection: Transaction outcome 
> unknown: transport failure
> {noformat}
> The reason for the crash is that the poller thread is still active when the 
> connection is being deleted. The destructor of the 
> {{qpid::messaging::ConnectionContext}} class deletes the {{TcpTransport}} 
> instance at the same time as, or right before, the poller thread is calling a 
> callback on it ({{qpid::messaging::amqp::TcpTransport::disconnected}}).
> I have attached a patch to solve the issue, at least for this use case.
> I cannot test this on {{1.37.0}} as I cannot build that version on RHEL6 as 
> it uses Python 2.6 which is no longer supported in {{1.37.0}}. The code in 
> question is identical in {{1.36.0}} and {{1.37.0}} though.
