-------------------------------------

             Summary: qpid::messaging::Session::nextReceiver can throw 
exception not descended from qpid::types::Exception
                 Key: QPID-5586
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-5586
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: C++ Client
    Affects Versions: 0.26, 0.27
            Reporter: Andrew Stitcher
             Fix For: 0.27


If a qpid messaging connection or (I think) a session is closed in one thread 
whilst another thread is in Session::nextReceiver(...) then 
qpid::ClosedException will be thrown.

This is definitely wrong! (There is no way to catch this exception using only 
the messaging library).

It seems that there needs to be a new qpid::messaging exception to cover the 
case that you were waiting for a receiver and the whole session has gone away. 
Certainly you need to know that you can't refer to the session any more.

It cannot be sufficient to assert that you must keep sessions around until all 
the nextReceiver() calls using them are finished with the current API as there 
is no way to preempt those calls externally. So a service loop waiting to for a 
receiver to process will be stuck waiting until the session closes. Even if you 
poll by using timeouts there is no way on return to tell that the session you 
were just listening on is dead.
