Camille Fournier commented on ZOOKEEPER-1100:
---------------------------------------------
I'm reviewing this issue. Can I get some clarity? Is the issue that you get a
runtime exception outside of the try block after while (state.isAlive()) so the
thread dies and hangs? Why put the try block there instead of around the entire
method?
> Killed (or missing) SendThread will cause hanging threads

> After investigating an issues with [hanging
> threads|http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/zookeeper-user/201106.mbox/%3Citpgb6$2mi$1...@dough.gmane.org%3E]
> I noticed that any java.lang.Error might silently kill the SendThread.
> Without a SendThread any thread that wants to send something will hang
> forever.
> Currently nobody will recognize a SendThread that died. I think at least a
> state should be flipped (or flag should be set) that causes all further send
> attempts to fail or to re-spin the connection loop.
