Hi all,
What's the best way to set connection timeouts to a long value (an hour or
more)? I've got code that creates a group of connections and set the
timeout for each one to a large value (3600, 36000, etc). I put these
connection in a pool and hand them out when needed. Before I hand out the
connection, I call the ping() method. The ping() method returns non-zero on
all my connections after a minute or two. So I have to drop the connections
and recreate new ones (which defeats the point of having a pool). I
actually set the connection value twice (each has the same value) when I
create the connection. I call set_option( opt_connect_timeout, 360000 )
after I create the connection object. I also pass in 360000 as the timeout
value to the connect() method. Neither of these seem to have an effect on
the timeout behavior. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!
