Hi 

Apologies for delibaratly reusing an FAQ item as the title of the question, but 
it's when I'm trying to implement the suggestion that I'm having issues! I'm 
currently using the latest C# client, but the code looks identical in the Java 
client, so it may be applicable to both. 

I'm trying to reconnect to an existing session using the session id and 
password in order to force an expiry in a unit test. The connection works ok, 
but actually forcing the expiry seems very flaky. The problem seems to occur at 
the line:

                        SubmitRequest(new RequestHeader { Type = 
(int)OpCode.CloseSession }, null, null, null);

Or 

            RequestHeader h = new RequestHeader();
            h.setType(ZooDefs.OpCode.closeSession);

            submitRequest(h, null, null, null);

in the Java case. In many cases the client is in the state CONNECTION_LOST 
(which seems ok, as it normally reconnects?), so the send fails, but as the 
client is in the process of shutting down, it's not resent, and so the server 
never gets the explicit expiry, which means the original connection never gets 
a SessionExpired error. Is there a unit test anywhere in the codebase that 
shows how to implement tests like this reliably? I've even tried performing the 
session expiry in a separate process, but this doesn't appear to work reliably 
either

Thanks,
Ben
