I used the code from the applet examples as a reference to adding code in my

accidentally) and the applet threw an exception. When I started up the server
again and published
a message (PtP), the applet didn't get any notifications. The only way I got it
to receive
messages again was to refresh the webpage which reloaded the applet - which
logged in again. In a
real life situation, the user wouldn't even know that the connection went down
and would be
wondering why there are no notifications coming in.
I looked at some of the fail safe examples in the site and I noticed that none
of the classes
needed are in the xmlBlasterAppletLib.jar. Does this mean I can't use them?
If not, is there a way to get some sort of simple fail safe mechanism working?
The primitive applet code has no fail safe features.
You could wrap a class around it which does reconnect for you.
This would be a nice feature to add to our distribution ...

Thanks.
