Re: How to get MINA to detect a lost connection?

[Yigal Rachman]

Hi, Mat: Thanks for your amazingly quick response! DIRMINA-354 appears to refer to the issue of a "keep-alive" message, which is great if both sides can cooperate on this.  My problem is that the instrument uses a proprietory third-party protocol, over which I have no control.  The instrument expects to be left alone while it is doing its job. I was hoping that MINA has some way to detect the loss of the connection, as happens with "normal" socket programming.

During normal operation, it does not write to the instrument, but just listens for input from the instrument. This part works flawlessly with very little coding on my part (thanks to MINA). There is one glitch: if the socket connection is ever lost, the driver continues to think it is connected because MINA does not close the session. Any ideas how I can get this to work properly?
