Thanks! So there is no way to have both long and short timeouts in one connection?

I would like to keep the infinite failover, but then for certain API calls, have it fail immediately if connection is lost.

You need to use the Failover transport options to configure the
transport to fail after some amount of time, the timeout option will let
you do that, see:

Hi,

We have client apps connecting to our server environment using ActiveMQ,
with failover enabled. Our users can have the app open on a laptop while
moving from one network to another or to a completely unconnected place.

ActiveMQ does beautiful failover, keeping the system running between
network connections. However there are certain cases when we would like
to use our own "failover mechanism".

To do that, we would need to be able to check connection state or have
an exception thrown when connection is not active. Now when you try to
send a message and create a temporary reply topic without network
connection it hangs on session.createTemporaryTopic().

How to not block on session.createTemporaryTopic() when the network is
disconnected?

I tried setting useAsyncSend to true and checking
connection.isTransportFailed() before calling createTemporaryTopic(),
but neither of them helped.

Creating a throwaway thread for the send attempt is a solution, but a
very crude one.

All the best,
Aleksi
