---------------------------------------
Summary: Posix driver swallows connect errors.
Key: PROTON-644
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-644
Project: Qpid Proton
Issue Type: Bug
Components: proton-c
Affects Versions: 0.8
Reporter: Marcel Meulemans
Priority: Minor
The majority of errors that can occur on a call to connect(...) (timeout, host
unreachable, network unavailable, etc) are hidden by the io layer. The reason
being that the socket is set to non-blocking prior to the call to connect and
the result of the connect is never checked.
A possible fix can be found here:
https://github.com/marcelmeulemans/qpid-proton/commit/d62cc2f482d083236512dd2a6ab93f9c85decf37
This fix make the pn_connect function block by using select to check the result
of connect with a timeout (currently 10 sec). Another option would be to be to
set the socket to non blocking after the connect, but this can can cause
connect to block for minutes.
