I am using apache thrift 0.9.3 in C++ with a TThreadPoolServer with a 15 thread limit.
I am running into a problem whereby a remote client may connect to my server, and so use up a thread, but then never disconnect. That connection thread on the server then remains "in use" forever. If this happens 15 times, my server blocks up. Is there any way to tell the server to disconnect a client after a set time? This seems to be such an obvious problem, I feel there must be a solution which I've missed. Bevis Please consider the environment before printing this email.
