Log:
Enable Reggie to handle a ServerSocket caught in the 4 minute TCP
2MSL TIME_WAIT state, can be safely interrupted.
Why did you not use ServerSocket.setReuseAddress(true)?
1. It's platform dependent and causes issues on windows platforms.
2. It may still cause a BindException
3. You can't reconnect to the same remote TCP IP address during the
TIME_WAIT period.
This will hamper discovery after quick restart of a vm wouldn't it?
Only if the ServerSocket hasn't closed because there is an open remote
TCP connection that hasn't ACK closed causing it to be in TIME_WAIT.
Good questions, thanks for asking.
Cheers,
Peter.
